#KDP75 #KDP120 #Kawai

Welcome to Merriam Pianos on YouTube. Today, we’ll be comparing two brand new Kawai models that just shipped to North America - the KDP75 (upgrade to the KDP70) and KDP120 (upgrade to the KDP110.)

The 70 and 110 were big sellers in the mid-range, and many folks considering one or the other would always end up comparing them. This is sure to continue with the 75 and 120, so hopefully, this video can help you decide which piano is best for you.

KDP75 Overview

As far as the upgrades the KPD75 has received over the KDP70, there are some pretty meaningful changes that have occurred. In other words, this wasn’t a minor upgrade resulting in a name change, this is the real deal.

For starters, the 75 now has USB, the speakers have been beefed up to 18 watts of power from 16 and the sample set now includes the SK-EX sample. The result is a very satisfying tone that goes way beyond what the 70 was capable of. It’s very responsive, and if you’re playing with headphones, you won’t hear a difference between the 75 and 120 since they use the same tone generator.

Where you will notice a difference, however, even when playing with headphones, is with the action, as the 75 uses a dual-sensor action, while the 120 uses a triple sensor.

Beginners and casual players likely won’t notice any difference, but more advanced players, especially when playing more demanding pieces, will certainly notice a difference.

While the user interface is the same, there are some differences with regards to the cabinet, as it is a little bit simpler on the KDP75.

All in all, you’re getting a piano here that sounds great across all of the onboard tones, has a solid action, and is undeniably a very good value. For many folks, the KDP75 will be more than enough piano and an upgrade to the 120 won’t be necessary.

KDP120 Overview

The KDP120 features less difference from the KDP110 than the 75 does from the 70. The speakers are the same with 40 watts of total power, but this is still right at the top for the price range.

They have improved the lower dynamic range of the instrument via some compression effects, and it incorporates Kawai’s Spatial Headphones settings for a better headphone experience.

The action is the same as the KDP110 - Responsive Hammer Compact II - but they have improved the padding of the keybed.

Connectivity is the same, but the 120 is now compatible with Kawai’s newest app, Piano Remote, which happens to be a great app.

Where the 110 was only available in Rosewood, the 120 is now available in Satin Black and Satin White in addition to Rosewood.

Overall, the 120 delivers a great punch but doesn’t necessarily offer a whole lot more than the 110 did. That said, Kawai didn’t change the price so it is understandable.

Summary

The gap has definitely narrowed between these two instruments with the latest versions, considering that the sound engine is the same, and that the 75 now has a USB port.

For a few hundred dollars more, the 120 is delivering a triple sensor action, more speaker power, and a slightly nicer cabinet with finish options.

If none of these three things are real deal breakers for you, you’ll be more than satisfied with the KDP75.

Thanks for watching!
