Kawai CA-901 W Digital Piano White Matte Set

Be Captivated by Stunning Sound and Unique Design!

The beautiful sound of the Kawai SK-EX concert grand is the heart of the new CA901. It is now available in two versions. As with the previous model, the SK-EX Concert Grand, and newly also as the SK-EX COMPETITION GRAND.

The new SK-EX COMPETITION GRAND sound was meticulously sampled from a latest-generation SK-EX concert grand selected for international competitions. Multiple microphone positions captured the nuances of this special grand, resulting in a more powerful tone and greater dynamic range. The subsequent mixing of the microphone positions is focused on the player’s position, unlike the SK-EX Concert Grand, which sounds more like from the audience’s perspective.

Impressive Appearance

The CA901 impresses not only with its many internal features but also with its modern design that catches the eye. The sophisticated look reinterprets classic piano design. The slim side profile, high-quality craftsmanship, and slow-closing key cover complete the elegant overall appearance. Ergonomics were also improved: the pedal position is shifted further back, allowing better playing comfort.

Exceptional Keyboard

The CA901 is equipped with the Grand Feel III action featuring wooden keys, delivering an exceptionally realistic playing experience. The key length of the Grand Feel III keyboard (from the front edge to the balance rail pin) is longer than any other digital piano keyboard. All eighty-eight black and white keys are made entirely from long wooden parts. Like a grand piano, each key moves smoothly on a balance rail. When a key is pressed, a weighted hammer moves upward just like the original. Additionally, the triple sensor system ensures optimal repetition and playing control.

TwinDrive Soundboard System

With the TwinDrive Soundboard System, Kawai has succeeded in reproducing a wide frequency range directly through the soundboard. The rear soundboard is vibrated by two AURES transducers, eliminating the need for additional bass speakers. The result is a radiation pattern like that of an acoustic piano and the best possible acoustic reproduction of the piano sound. This system is based on the natural resonance of acoustic pianos and is therefore far superior to the principle of conventional speaker systems.

In addition to hi-end audio signal routing, digital amplifiers, and a high-quality headphone amplifier, the CA901 is equipped with 6 speakers and 360-degree diffusers for the upward-facing speakers as part of its unique soundboard system. These specially developed components create a sound experience that distributes natural sound throughout the room, allowing listeners to hear the music just as the player does, without any loss in quality.

Bluetooth Audio/MIDI

In addition to the USB-to-host port, the CA901 is equipped with Bluetooth® MIDI 5.0 technology, enabling wireless communication with smart devices (e.g., smartphone or tablet). This allows you to comfortably use a wide range of music-related apps such as the Kawai PianoRemote app or the PiaBookPlayer app in conjunction with your CA901 digital piano. Or simply use the Bluetooth® Audio 5.1 interface. Just connect your smartphone to the CA901, and you can enjoy all your music directly through the CA901’s speaker system. This is especially recommended for play-along or listening to tutorial videos.

Touchscreen Operation

The CA901 features a 5" touchscreen with an anti-glare surface for easy operation of all functions. Additionally, you can control the CA901 via the PianoRemote app available for Android and iOS, which essentially mirrors the internal system. The display can completely turn off during inactivity to minimize distractions while playing.

USB To Device Functionality with MP3/WAV Recording and Playback

The CA901 is equipped with USB ports that not only allow MIDI data exchange with a connected computer but also enable you to save data directly to a USB storage device. You can also play songs from your favorite artists in MP3 or WAV format directly. Furthermore, you can record your own playing in MP3 or WAV format and, for example, email it to friends, listen to the songs on a smartphone or PC, or burn them to CD on your PC.

Comfortable and Stable Piano Bench

This piano bench offers high-quality features alongside its elegant appearance, such as sturdy legs with non-slip rubber feet, a smooth and precise spindle mechanism for height adjustment, and a durable, comfortable seat covered in velour. The sophisticated spindle mechanism with a double scissor system guarantees smooth and extremely durable height adjustment. Small details like rubber stoppers between the base frame and support frame clearly distinguish this beautiful piano bench from others in this price range.

Headphones

The Pronomic KH-900 is a professional stereo headphone that combines excellent sound characteristics with maximum wearing comfort at an affordable price. The soft, wide synthetic leather headband automatically adjusts to head size, ensuring a comfortable fit. The KH-900 features a wide frequency range from 15 to 25,000 Hz, delivering balanced, nuanced sound with brilliant, clear highs and precise, rich bass. Thanks to its low impedance of only 32 ohms, the KH-900 delivers powerful sound and sufficient headroom even on low-power headphone outputs such as MP3 players or smartphones. The 3.5 mm stereo jack plug ensures excellent transmission quality. A 6.3 mm stereo jack adapter is also included.

Piano Method

The instrument is introduced and explained to beginners in a playful, relaxed way. Starting with familiar, simple melodies up to playing complete songs with both hands, various theoretical knowledge is also conveyed alongside. Reading music, rhythm, dynamics, and much more are covered in parallel with the exercises. Moreover, the simple exercises guarantee quick learning success.
