Premium Concert Artist Authenticity

Featuring Kawais most advanced wooden-key keyboard action, premium multi-channel piano sampling, upgraded audio processing, and an immersive 6-speaker sound system, the CA701 offers a flagship playing experience at a competitive price point.

At the core of the CA701 lies Kawais acclaimed Grand Feel III keyboard action. With 88 all-wood keys, extended pivot length, grade-weighted hammers, counterweights, and a responsive triple-sensor system, this action mirrors the feel of a world-class acoustic grand. The natural motion and precision are enhanced with Ebony & Ivory Touch surfaces and an authentic Let-Off mechanism for nuanced pianissimo control.

The CA701 introduces the brand-new SK-EX Competition Grand sound, recorded from the players perspective to capture the brilliance and clarity of Kawais latest Shigeru Kawai SK-EX-L concert pianosused in international competitions like Chopin and Hamamatsu. This voice joins the beloved SK-EX Concert Grand, offering two distinct tonal palettes crafted through Kawais SK-EX Rendering engine, which blends multi-channel 88-key sampling with real-time resonance modelling.
