Very informative!!<br /><br />I have two children who i would like to learn, I am starting to learn as part of a life long dream/bucket list..<br /><br />I have the option between a ydp 161 at £819 or clp 340 at £1499 and the retailer also said the ydp 161 is the equivalent to the discontinued clp 320. <br /><br />There is a significant price difference between the ydp 161 and the clp 430. Is it worth it? or alternatively a friend has a clp 320 which seems nice should i try and get one of these as a compromise? usually around £1200 but more difficult to get hold <br />of.<br /><br />Thanks for your help. maxineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-35902656702856522842012-04-05T10:05:52.529-07:002012-04-05T10:05:52.529-07:00I am trying to decide which one to buy from Yamaha...I am trying to decide which one to buy from Yamaha ydp 161 & 181. is it worth it to spend $300 more on ydp 161 bundle deal over the ydp 181 bundle deal? <br />How does the yamaha 181/161 compare to Roland F120.<br />Thank you for your helpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-6050078454551102852012-03-17T02:29:52.840-07:002012-03-17T02:29:52.840-07:00Hi,

Initially I was thinking of buying a clavinova, but then due to its higher price i thought i'd buy arius. But at the dealer's place, there was this Kurzweil MP10SR, and the dealer told me that it has far superior piano sound and touch than Yamaha YDP series and ever since I've been persuaded to buy the kurzweil. What is your opinion about this? <br />Mani from IranAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-20993932462397454202011-07-06T11:11:45.458-07:002011-07-06T11:11:45.458-07:00can either of them (Yamaha YDP161 or Casio CLP320 ...can either of them (Yamaha YDP161 or Casio CLP320 ) be use to higher grades?

Interestingly, they are also about the same price.<br />I think the only difference is first the touch sensitivity, which has hard/medium/soft/fixed for the YDP and Yes for the CLP320, and second the YDP161 has Reverb Yes and the CLP has 4 Types.<br />Does these things really make a difference?<br />And, since they are the same price, what to choose?<br />Thanks!<br />ErikAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-35735499815576808812011-05-18T18:12:45.617-07:002011-05-18T18:12:45.617-07:00Can you please give your thoughts on CLP 430 Vs CL...Can you please give your thoughts on CLP 430 Vs CLP 440?

We are in the market to buys a digital upright piano for our kids (under 10 yr) and went to local Best Buy store and the guy there showed us these three:<br />Roland F-110 (for $1250)<br />Casio PX-830 (for $1300)<br />Yamaha Arius YDP-161 (for $1350)<br /><br />Out of these he (said he is a piano teacher too) highly recommended Roland.<br /><br />Can you suggest which one (if any) of these is the best? Also is there any other brand/model in this price range that we should consider instead?<br /><br />Thanks<br />KhojAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-7183375097857021032011-01-27T09:38:43.098-07:002011-01-27T09:38:43.098-07:00If you want to know what I am able to offer in the...If you want to know what I am able to offer in the way of digital pianos, you are welcome to email me directly for that informationAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00831013491936339468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-50919914749424745112011-01-26T17:25:02.289-07:002011-01-26T17:25:02.289-07:00Do you sell pianos for Casio?Do you sell pianos for Casio?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636577149643754499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-31470388930417292992011-01-19T09:24:35.436-07:002011-01-19T09:24:35.436-07:00is yamaha clp 320 good for playing classical music...is yamaha clp 320 good for playing classical music?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4435387191513477004.post-50557065778462512532011-01-17T19:57:47.669-07:002011-01-17T19:57:47.669-07:00"Good" quality digital pianos are excell..."Good" quality digital pianos are excellent choices for taking piano lessons and playing pianoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00831013491936339468noreply@blogger.com
