Keyboard and Touch
The Kawai CX202's Responsive Hammer Compact II (RHCII) keyboard action, with 88 grade-weighted keys, conveys the feeling of an acoustic piano as naturally as possible. Thanks to the triple-sensor system, repeated notes respond faster and more accurately, creating finer control during performance.
The matte-finish keys ensure comfort during long practice sessions, while the distinct weighting in the bass and treble regions recalls the natural balance of an acoustic piano. For this reason, the CX202 provides a convincing touch for both beginners and serious pianists.
Sound Quality
The CX202's primary sound source is the sampled tone of the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand. Harmonic Imaging (HI) technology preserves tonal depth and warmth, creating natural dynamic transitions from pianissimo to fortissimo.
The 192-note maximum polyphony helps notes ring out without cutting off during complex pieces. Damper Resonance and 6 different reverb effects make the instrument's sound feel more vibrant and close to a concert hall.
The 40W stereo speaker system is powerful enough to comfortably fill medium-sized rooms. The Low Volume Balance function preserves tonal balance and touch sensitivity even at lower volume levels.
Functions and Connectivity
The CX202 connects wirelessly to smartphones, tablets, and laptops with Bluetooth® Audio and Bluetooth® MIDI support. This makes it easy to work with practice apps and stream audio from your phone or computer.
With the PianoRemote app, you can control sounds, settings, and Virtual Technician functions from your phone. The PiaBookPlayer app displays sheet music on your screen and makes page-turning easier with compatible pedal support.
The built-in lesson system includes Burgmüller, Czerny, Beyer, and Alfred materials. Dual, Split, Four Hands, Transpose, metronome, and recording functions make the practice process more flexible and productive.
Design
The CX202 stands out with a simple, elegant cabinet design that suits home interiors. Soft curved side panels, a sturdy support structure, a sliding keyboard cover, and a folding music rest create both an aesthetic appearance and practical use. At just 40.5 cm deep, the instrument is also suitable for apartment living conditions.
The model comes in three different colors: Premium Rosewood, Premium Satin Black, and Premium Satin White. Thus, it is possible to choose a piano that matches both the music and the aesthetics of the space.
