KAWAI CA59

The award-winning legacy of Kawai’s family of digital pianos is strengthened and continued through the CA59. Producing an exceptional piano experience, the CA59 was developed using advanced digital features that are skillfully merged with traditional piano character. It retains the“Grand Feel Compact” wooden-key keyboard action and Harmonic Imaging XL sound samples of its predecessor while offering a number of new features and improvements. The CA59 is the intermediate model of the Concert Artist range, and successor to the popular CA58 upper-mid-range digital piano.

Description

The CA59 embodies our never-ending quest to perfect the art of the piano. The CA59 continues a legacy of authentic sound and premium features found in the CA58 model. This updated model preserves the core Grand Feel Compact wooden-key keyboard action and acoustic piano sound of Shigeru Kawai SK-EX and Kawai EX Concert Grand Pianos, while also adding a new Shigeru Kawai SK-5 piano sound, recreating the unrivaled touch and responsiveness of a fine grand piano. It incorporates technologies developed in collaboration with premium audio equipment manufacturer, Onkyo, and features a new motherboard and amplification system designed to deliver richer, higher quality sound.

Existing Bluetooth® MIDI functionality is complemented by the addition of Bluetooth® Audio, with aptX support providing high-quality wireless audio with minimal latency. The CA59 also possesses an updated cabinet design, adopting the taller body and rounded edge details of the larger Concert Artist models, for a more impressive, premium experience. A modernized OLED graphic display creates easier visibility, and the CA59 will support Kawaiʼs new PianoRemote app, allowing sounds and settings to also be adjusted using a compatible iOS or Android smartphone or tablet. The Kawai Concert Artist (CA) Series is one of the most award-winning lines of digital pianos available today, and the CA59 is a model that will deliver players of all levels an exceptional playing experience.
