The New Entry Point of the CX Series
The Kawai CX102 launches the CX series by combining the brand's sonic DNA with simplified usability. Designed for demanding beginners as well as experienced pianists, it offers Kawai's signature tones, a modern interface, and study tools for sustainable progress.
Keyboard Design
88-note Responsive Hammer Lite (RHL) graded keyboard (heavier in the bass, lighter in the treble) to replicate the feel of an acoustic piano. Dual sensor per key for fine nuance detection, matte non-slip surface, and 3 sensitivity curves to adapt the touch to your playing style.
Sound Quality
The CX102 is based on Harmonic Imaging technology (sampling) from the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano. It features 17 voices covering pianos, electric pianos, organs, strings, etc., 192-note polyphony, and damper resonances for enhanced realism. Sound is delivered through a 2 x 11 W system with 2 x 12 cm speakers, and Spatial Headphone Sound for headphone playing.
Built-in Effects
- Reverbs: Room, Lounge, Small Hall, Concert Hall, Live Hall, Cathedral
- Timbre and tuning adjustments via "Virtual Technician" (PianoRemote app)
- Brightness control and headphone spatial simulation (Spatial Headphone Sound)
Educational Features
The CX102 supports learning with a four-hand mode, 5 songs with lesson function (right hand, left hand, or both hands), and the addition of 10 custom songs. A metronome with 1 to 7 beats helps practice tempo, while the MIDI recorder allows you to listen to your progress. Dual and Split modes, along with the PianoRemote app, enrich daily practice.
Advanced Features
For stage and home studio use, enjoy USB-to-Host (USB-MIDI) connectivity, Bluetooth MIDI, transposition, and fine tuning. The Concert Mode offers 40 high-quality orchestral accompaniments, and two headphone outputs (mini-jack and 6.35 mm) facilitate lessons and silent playing.
