What we think of the Roland LX706 digital pianoThe mid-range model of the new LX700 series range, the LX706 is the first model in the range to feature the newly developed Hybrid Grand Keyboard action and PureAcoustic modelling sound engine, resulting in a piano far more authentic than Roland has produced to date. The Hybrid Grand action has longer keys than ever before, resulting in a more nuanced and balanced touch, while retaining the wood and plastic construction of the PHA50 keyboard for enhanced structural rigidity. The usual refinements include escapement and ivory & ebony feel, and for the first time what Roland calls Haptic Key Vibration. This recreates the natural vibrations the pianist feels through the keys and has only previously been available on considerably more expensive Hybrid models. This suits the new PureAcoustic modelling sound engine perfectly, with new European and American grand piano sounds which are purely modelled for the most authentic possible attack and decay.The instrument benefits from Roland's Piano Designer menu, enabling the pianist to customise almost every aspect of the piano sound from lid position to duplex scaling to the amount of cabinet resonance - you can make the piano your own, just like an acoustic instrument and also save these and share them with the rest of the world using the Piano Designer app.Bluetooth connectivity enables use of the Piano Designer and new Piano Every Day apps, along with audio streaming so you can play along with your favourite songs.All of this sound is reproduced by a 3-way speaker system, a cut down version of the Acoustic Projection system featured in the LX708, with 6 speakers specially positioned around the body of the piano to project the sound in the same way as an acoustic piano. The six speakers are split into three pairs, with each pair optimised to deliver superior sound reproduction across the piano’s dynamic range – even down to the noise as the hammers strike the strings, or the resonance of the cabinet as the sound reverberates through the piano’s body.With traditional acoustic upright piano style cabinetry the LX706 delivers the elegance of an acoustic piano at a competitive price point and is worth comparing against the Yamaha Clavinova CLP675.
