Kawai Unveils CX Series: Accessible Excellence in Digital Pianos
Hamamatsu, Japan — August 2025. Kawai Musical Instruments has introduced its newest line of digital pianos—the CX Series, featuring the CX102 and CX202. These instruments bring Kawai’s signature grand piano touch, tone, and modern conveniences to a broader audience at an attractive price point.
A Musical Home for All
Designed with learning and long-term enjoyment in mind, the CX Series is the perfect companion for beginners, families, and returning pianists alike. Housed in elegant yet straightforward cabinets, these instruments offer a reliable and stylish starting point for players of any age.
Touch That Inspires
CX102: Features the Responsive Hammer Lite (RHL) action—graded and weighted to help develop proper finger strength and technique.
CX202: Steps up with the Responsive Hammer Compact II (RHCII)—a triple-sensor action that offers heightened accuracy and realism.
Both actions deliver an authentic grand piano response, ideal for home practice with a natural feel.
