This is a fresh look at the KDP75. Why is it still so popular in the marketplace and how does it compare to the KDP120?
Demographic
The KDP75 is geared towards families, students, parents, and anybody looking for a great starter 88-note digital piano with weighted keys. It’s not too expensive at USD$1,000, and will be a durable, musical partner for the first several years of someone’s musical life.
Features
With 192-note polyphony, 18 watts of speaker power, and a highly editable piano tone, the KDP75 competes directly with Roland’s RP107 and Yamaha’s YDP-145.
Speakers
The two speakers, whose power is typical for this range of instruments, are pointed towards the floor, although some sound comes through to the performer due to the cut and bevel of the music desk.
Sounds
The piano’s 88 notes are sampled in stereo with an harmonic imaging engine that provides 13 parameters for editing, which is far more than other comparable instruments. The KDP75 also includes 10 smart presets that allow the performer to easily move between acoustic environments either with piano key commands or with a mobile device.
There are 15 onboard sounds consisting of 4 acoustic pianos and 11 other keyboard, strings, choir, percussion, and synth sounds.
Controls
An easy-to-use control panel is provided on the left side of the piano for those who don’t want to use the app.
Extras
There is also a basic recorder and some lesson-compatible material, but, like most Kawai digital pianos, the main focus of the KDP75 is the piano tone, and the ability to edit that tone. There is no Bluetooth or many other connectivity ports because this is designed to be a replacement for an acoustic piano for a player in their early stages. For its price, this keyboard performs that function exceptionally well.
Action
The KDP75 comes with the Responsive Hammer Compact Action that has been updated with additional padding making it one of the mechanically quietest digital pianos in the market.
KDP120 Comparison
When comparing the KDP75 to the KDP120, the next model in the lineup, there is an increase of about USD$500 as well as four major differences:
KDP75 KDP120
Double Sensor Triple Sensor
A triple sensor can provide more data, thus accuracy, about the key movement to the computer.
Two, 9-Watt Speakers Two, 20-Watt Speakers
When used without headphones, the more powerful speakers will more easily fill a room with sound.
No Bluetooth Bluetooth MIDI Connectivity
Bluetooth MIDI allows for wireless remote control functionality.
Basic Finish Better Veneer
The better veneer provides a more wood-like finish.
Apart from these differences, the instruments are mostly the same with the same number of sounds and the same tone engine.

I'm honestly not looking to buy a piano, I just come here for my weekly dose of Stu's playing.
Me too!
Thanks so much for tuning in! I'll be happy to pass on the kind words and compliments to Stu! :)
Greetings from Brazil! Happy New 2024!
Thank you kindly! Happy New Year to you as well! :)
Kawai and Yamaha are definitely my go to for digital pianos. Great vid🎹🎶
Thanks so much! Both companies make excellent instruments. :)
LOVE my KDP-75.
I am glad to hear it! It is a fantastic instrument! :)
Great video Stu 😊
Thanks for tuning in! We appreciate it. :)
Hi Stu & Crew
This is right, everything is described properly, and the second angle adds to the dynamism (kudos for editing), 2024-ready.
7:52 So where can I find this link for audio?
Should be as the first in line in the description and as a Card in the top right corner
Thanks for your suggestion. I will pass it along to our production team.
I am here just to admire the digital pianos.
Well, thank you for stopping by our channel and checking out our videos! We appreciate it. :)
Will you be reviewing the Studiologic Numa X Piano GT Digital Piano by any chance?
Hi there! Thanks for the suggestion! We are not Studiologic dealers, so it may be a bit trickier to tackle that review. But, we will add it to the list and do our best. Sometimes, we received interesting instruments on trade that make their way onto the RUclips channel. :)
Completely understand, thank you:)
How about the Yamaha CP88 Stage Piano?
💗💢Rockin 💗💢👌👌
Thank you so much! :)
My thanks again to Merriam for its informative reviews.
I suggest spending a little more than the price of this entry level home piano. If you're going to buy a home piano (with furniture being part of the price) you should get a slightly better action than offerered by Kawai and Yamaha at this pricepoint. I'd go for the Roland RP or F model, with its PHA-4 action, or better still, the slightly more expensive Yamaha YDP-165, which has the GH3 action I believe. I've barely forgiven Yamaha for deleting the YDP-164 model which was such good value for money, but time stands still for nobody, and prices are beginning to come down again anyway.
You're very welcome! Thank you for tuning in as always! We appreciate it. :)
The KDP75 holds up as a wonderful choice for its price category, but, of course, spending a bit more money can unlock some higher quality specifications and features as you've mentioned. Thanks for sharing the insights!
For me personaly I prefer the GHS and RHC over the PHA4, however that's just my opinion. Love my DGX670🎹🎶
@@MERCEDES-BENZS600GUARD_V12 It's good to be reminded of the diversity of tastes in keyboard actions. The triple sensor is one obvious selling point of the PHA4 action, but what works best for the player is the main issue. You might agree with me that Yamaha's GH3 is a cut above all of these actions, which is why I've always recommended the YDP-164/165 over the YDP/144/145. The price difference is worth it IMO.
I like his improvisation going from subdommants , dominant to tonic .. please is it possible to make a video about the new Yamaha Genos 2 .. I'd like to know your expertise opinion
I'll be happy to pass on the kind words to Stu for you! Also, thank you for the suggestion. We will do our best to tackle that review for you. However, we do have a number of videos in the queue right now. Thanks again and happy playing! :)
Roland please come out with a refreshed RD-2000 with 73 keys🙏🏼
I suppose time will tell if they expand the RD line! But, I would recommend checking out the FANTOM-0 line, which has some less-than-88 key offerings. :)
I’m having the hardest time deciding on what to buy. I need a digital piano for home practice. Mostly interested in piano sounds. Had decided on the Roland FP60X, now hearing this I’m second guessing myself. Anyone have an opinion on one vs the other? My budget is around $1,000 but was going to splurge for the home stand and pedal board with the Roland.
Hi! Brent here! The Roland FP60X is an awesome piano! The tone and touch are fantastic and the the speaker system really pushes things over the edge sonically. The sound is really rewarding and captivating! While the Kawai KDP75 is an excellent piano with a great touch and tone in its own regard, the FP60X is a more advanced piano on all fronts. However, it does come down to personal tastes and subjectivity of course. :)
Thank you so much for your quick response. This page is a great source!!
That’s more of a synthesiser than a piano. I appreciate the look and sound of the kawai more
Kdp75 or ap470?
Hi! Brent here! It really comes down to a matter of personal preference. I would personally give a slight edge to the AP470 in terms of tone and speaker system, but an edge to the KDP75 in terms of touch. I would recommend trying both instruments out in person to determine which one you connect with more. :)
This or the yamaha YDP145?😢
It really comes down to a matter of personal preference and budget. The KDP120 is the more congruent Kawai model to the YDP145 as I mentioned in my response to your other comment. The KDP120 is my personal favourite digital piano in this price category. :)
@@MerriamPianos how about a video on the best digital pianos of the past 10 years focusing one one thing and one thing only: action realism. I personally have an acoustic piano, which I dont mind playing for an hour a day, if I am playing music. But I am not going to force everyone in the house or even my neighbors (detached house; it tested decibles, its very audible at street level and between houses ) to listen to be butcher czery every now and then for a few hours at 1am. I need a digital that is cheap, is going to be somewhat realistic feeling. Dont care how it looks, dont care about the modes or the speakers, I actually dont care if its the best and most realisitic vs. other digital pianos. All that matters is, if I spend 5 hours on it that I wont have to relearn it it all when I go to play a real one. Something that is just close enough and not 5000 dollars. . Just headphones in, practice, one sound....piano. I have had digital pianos in the past and they were so different it was almost not worth it to practice on. Key click does not bother me.
Kawai kdp75 or casio privia px770? Any suggestion?? Will help me a lot!!
