CONCERT TONE, ARTIST'S TOUCH
Posted by Down Beat Magazine reviews the CA93 on 9th Jan 2012
As far as authenticity goes, the Kawai CA93 digital piano has two distinct advantages working in its favor. First would be the company’s 80 years of experience building fine acoustic upright pianos and grands. The other is an actual wooden soundboard that disperses the instrument’s tone and makes it ring out just like a real piano being played on stage or in your living room
While digital instruments typically utilize cone speakers that generate a highly directional sound, acoustic instruments like pianos, guitars and violins harness the properties of wood to produce a tone that resonates evenly in all directions. In the CA93’s 135- watt Soundboard Speaker System, sound energy from six speakers is channeled by an electronic transducer onto a wooden soundboard, which in turn vibrates to create ambient soundwaves. The resulting non-directional sound is a detailed acoustic portrait—about as close as you can get to an actual piano, with deep, resonant bass frequencies and clean, crisp trebles.
Ultra Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology ensures smooth tonal transitions across the keyboard and throughout its dynamic range. All 88 keys of a high-end Kawai EX grand were sampled multiple times to achieve a super accurate and subtly nuanced piano sound on the CA93.
For realistic touch, the CA93 uses the new RM3 grand action with let-off feature, which re-creates the subtle “notch” sensation felt when playing gently on the keys of a grand piano. This action uses real wooden keys with incredibly real-feeling Ivory Touch key surfaces along with a mechanical design that closely resembles the motion of Kawai’s grand piano actions. Counterweights are placed at the front of the bass keys to provide the natural balance of an acoustic piano action.
In addition to about two dozen beautiful acoustic and electric piano sounds, the CA93 has a broad selection of studio-quality instrumental sounds including 16 organs (jazz, drawbar, pipe, etc.) a handful of harpsichords and mallets, orchestral strings, vocals/pads and guitars/ basses—80 sounds in all. Any two sounds can be played on the keyboard simultaneously, and there is a split mode where two different instrument sounds can be played on opposite sides of the keyboard. The keyboard’s 192-note polyphony is simply astounding.
USB-to-device and USB-to-host capabilities provide a world of opportunity, including recording and playing digital audio, storing songs and playing song files, and connectivity to computers. Users can save, play and load songs recorded in the CA93’s internal song format as well as play standard MIDI, WAV and MP3 files. Other useful jacks include two headphone jacks, MIDI connections and audio input/output jacks for connecting to sound equipment and recording systems.
There are several educational features on the CA93 that make it appealing to beginners and novice players, and it even plays a decent selection of classic piano pieces and standard religious hymns all on its own. But this a fine, expressive instrument with a beautiful conservatory design and exceptional concert sound, fit for a true artist’s touch. And remember, this is no portable keyboard: You’ll want to dedicate a space for it in your theater, home, church or studio. — Ed Enright

Soundboard with speaker attached, who woulda thought. Amazing that other manufactures have not copied this yet.

Replaces the Acoustic
Posted by Sammy on 15th Apr 2010
I never thought I would have a digital piano as my primary piano. Long story short, that all changed when I visited Londonderry Piano and got my hands on the Kawai CA-93. Great feel and sound for a couple thousand less then the equal performing acoustic upright.

Wood Keys, Wooden Soundboard & No Tunings
Posted by JT Morgan on 15th Apr 2010
I love the Kawai CA93, I need to get one. I wish I could afford to buy one right now. I have been using a Casio PX110 for the last 8 months and need to upgrade. The wooden keys that Kawai takes from their acoustic piano division is a must have in a digital, and now they added a soundboard which really adds to the sound. The soundboard I thought might have been a gimmick but when I heard the digital piano next to one that didn't have a soundboard I could hear the difference. I want one.
