Slim Design, Big Piano Feel!
The Yamaha Arius YDP-S56 is the slim Slim Line model for players who want a high-quality digital piano, e-piano and home piano with a reduced footprint. It pairs 88 weighted keys with the new GrandTouch-E hammer action, Yamaha CFX concert-grand sound, VRM Lite, 192-note polyphony, powerful 2 x 20 W output, plus Bluetooth Audio and Bluetooth MIDI. That gives you the strong playing foundation of the YDP-166 in a modern, space-saving format.
Slim Line Cabinet
The YDP-S56 was designed for living rooms, apartments, practice rooms and modern interiors where a classic digital piano might feel too deep. Its slim profile and flat-closing lid create a clean, minimalist look. At the same time, the instrument remains a fully fledged Arius piano with 88 keys, three pedals and a solid playing feel.
GrandTouch-E in Compact Form
The GrandTouch-E keyboard makes the decisive difference to the smaller slim-line model. It responds precisely to subtle nuances, fast repetition and dynamic playing. That makes the YDP-S56 suitable for demanding players, advanced students and returning players who don’t want to compromise on touch despite a compact footprint.
CFX Sound and Resonance
The Yamaha CFX concert-grand sound delivers a clear, expressive tone with natural dynamics. VRM Lite supports the resonance of strings and dampers, while reverb effects, key-off samples and smooth release round off the sound musically. Over headphones, the Stereophonic Optimizer creates a pleasant, spacious playing experience.
Powerful Speakers
Despite the slim cabinet, the YDP-S56 features a 2 x 20 Watt speaker system. This produces a present, room-filling sound that convinces both for practice and performance. Intelligent Acoustic Control helps keep the sound balanced and transparent even at low volume.
Bluetooth and Smart Pianist
Bluetooth Audio lets you stream songs, backing tracks and learning content through the built-in speakers. Bluetooth MIDI connects the piano wirelessly to the Yamaha Smart Pianist app. This lets you control functions comfortably and use digital practice aids without extra cables.

Comfortable and Stable Piano Bench
This piano bench combines elegant looks with high-quality features such as sturdy legs fitted with non-slip rubber, a smooth, precise spindle mechanism for height adjustment, and a durable, comfortable corduroy-covered seat. The sophisticated spindle mechanism with double-scissor system guarantees smooth and extremely durable height adjustment. Small details like the rubber stoppers between the base frame and support frame clearly set this fine bench apart from others in its price class.

Headphones
The Pronomic KH-900 is a professional stereo headphone that combines excellent sound characteristics with outstanding wearing comfort at a pocket-friendly price. The soft, wide synthetic leather headband automatically adapts to head size for a comfortable fit. The KH-900 offers a wide frequency range from 15 to 25,000 Hz, delivering a balanced, nuanced sound with brilliant, clear highs and precise, full bass. With a low impedance of just 32 ohms, the KH-900 already performs impressively on very weak headphone outputs, such as MP3 players or smartphones, delivering punchy sound and plenty of headroom. The 3.5 mm stereo plug ensures excellent signal transmission. A 6.3 mm stereo adapter is included.

Piano Method
In a playful, relaxed way, the beginner is introduced to the instrument and its basics. Starting with familiar, simple melodies and progressing to two-handed performance of complete songs, the method also conveys a fair amount of theoretical knowledge along the way. Reading notation, rhythm, dynamics and more are covered alongside the exercises. The simple exercises also guarantee quick learning progress.
