Kawai CA770 Brochure & Specs

The Kawai Concert Artist Series are incredibly authentic sounding digital pianos.  Using our exclusive

Harmonic Imaging sound technology, these instruments reproduce sounds with amazing clarity and expression.

We began with the world’s finest concert grand... the handcrafted Kawai EX Concert

Piano. Using state-of-the-art digital equipment, our sound specialists meticulously

recorded the rich tone of this exceptional piano in the “anechoic chamber” at our

advanced piano research facility. Since each dynamic level of the piano carries a

unique harmonic signature, our engineers created extremely accurate stereo “maps”

of the entire dynamic range for each key.

Next, Kawai developed a proprietary new process called 

Harmonic Imaging

to transform this vast “harmonic

portrait” into a vibrant re-creation of the EX Concert Piano.  Harmonic Imaging faithfully

reproduces the rich dynamic range of the original piano, from delicate pianissimos to

thunderous fortissimos.  Harmonic Imaging also brings a new level of authenticity to all

the other instrumental sounds found in the Concert Artist digital pianos.

As one of the world’s premier builders of acoustic pianos, Kawai has long understood the vital importance of

“feel” to the pianist. For this reason, Kawai has been a pioneer in the use of real wooden keys in our digital

pianos. 

The CA970 utilizes our Enhanced AWA Grand action. With

an extra-long wooden key, this action brings to our digital

pianos the same balance point, key movement and hammer

motion found in our fine grand pianos. Additionally, the

electronic contacts have been placed 

above

the hammers to

accurately re-create the “strike point” of a grand piano.

The CA770 features our AWA action which also utilizes a 

balanced and weighted wooden key mechanism.  This action

also brings the satisfying feel of an acoustic piano to the

CA770.
