DGX-670B 88-Key Weighted Digital Piano, Black | Sustain Foot Switch Included, Music Rest Included, Furniture Stand Sold Separately

So I work in another country and couldn't walk with my Yamaha MODX8 (which is one of the best synthesizers on the market by the way). I needed a new keyboard to practice and watched tons of Youtube video to decide which board to buy that was under $1000. I was split between the Yamaha DGX 670 and the Kawai ES110 (which is around the same price range). I was also a bit skeptical after watching the reviews that complained about the quality of the speakers. I settled on the Yamaha DGX 670B because it seemed to offer more in terms of Styles (and backup band). I can say definitively, that I haven't regretted the decision. This board exceeds my expectation. The piano sound is beautiful, and the speakers are really good, defying what I heard about the onboard speaker quality. While it doesn't have the means of loading Yamaha's flagship Bosendorfer piano sound (like I could with my MODX8), the Yamaha CFX grand sound is really nice. Plus there are two other major piano tones (if you don't like the Yamaha CFX default sound), as well as many other voices. This board makes me not miss walking with my MODX, and the key bed feels exactly the same. CONS: (1)I am not sure whether the keybed is fully weighted as my previous Yamaha MOXF8 had a heavier action (2) The keys only comes with double sensors unlike the Kawai ES110 which has triple sensors, hence the Kawai ES 110 are more suited for advanced pianists, especially when playing thrills and other ornaments. (3) The key bed doesn't come with key escapement as in the P515, which gives a closer feel to a real piano. But the Kawai ES110 doesn't have this also. (4) You can import new styles but you can't import new voices or samples. (5) You can only play a maximum of 3 voices at the same time (1 with your left hand and 2 with your right), while other more expensive boards allow you to play as much as nine voices at the same time. (6) This keyboard is waaay too heavy. My more advanced MODX8 feels significantly lighter. Hence, it is not advantageous for mobility reasons. Overall, this board is a great buy. Easy to use, really professional sounds, arranger functions, etc. Update: It's now almost three months since I bought this board and I'm still enjoying it. Great buy! Today, July 30, 2022, I learnt that I could hook this digital piano up to my laptop via a USB cord (these small details are not in the user manual), and without needing to buy a MIDI/Audio Interface for US$120, I can take advantage of DAW and virtual pianos on my laptop, seamlessly. This keyboard has the ability to do that. Which means that you can expand your available piano or organ sounds via KEYSCAPE, Alicia's Keys, PianoTeq, etc. or any other of your favourite virtual piano sounds. You would just need to turn your Midi setting on your board on, and turn the keyboard volume off. If you want to use your VST to bluetooth the sound back to your DGX Onboard speakers, you must install the Yamaha Steinberg driver, which will remove the delay experienced.

FINALLY! I demo'd this keyboard at a guitar center and instantly fell in love with the feel, features, and function. Firstly, I love the sound options, metronome, USB/MIDI capabilities, accompaniment, patch programming, and am sure I'll love the many other features I have yet to explore. I'm new to piano and have tested many other keyboards at Guitar Center and after playing this one, I knew this was the right choice. I'm no audiophile and the speakers sound great when I'm practicing at home or playing around with the family, and the headphone jack make it easy to quickly jump into my own world of playing. The USB out is perfect for connecting to a laptop and doing online lessons, and even playing my lessons through the speakers when I want. I'm also learning songs for church and the USB has been amazing to run Mainstage sounds through the piano speakers or headphones. All in all I love this keyboard and it's perfect for my situation. I'm no gigging musician, just a dad looking to learn to play, and this crosses off all the boxes for me. If you're on the fence, I definitely recommend a demo at your local guitar center or piano shop to see for yourself, but this has been one of the best purchases I've made in a while and can't recommend enough!

I'm a new piano player wannabe (student) of just a few weeks - I was using my teacher's much older loaner model (2015-ish) and once I decided I liked learning piano I bought this one. I was a bit concerned that the music rest (book stand) wouldn't be tall or sturdy enough to hold the thick big book one gets as a student but it holds mine (Faber, book 1) upright, firmly, and well! Although this comes with a sustain pedal, it's nothing to brag at. I bought the furniture stand for it, the 3-pedal, and a nice adjustable bench. So far, I'm a really bad-piano-playin' happy camper! The price was right ($799.99). I unpacked it by myself, and yes it's a heavy beast (47 lbs) - although it's touted as "portable", I can't imagine I'll move it once it's in it's final resting place. Be aware that the piano is a whopping 55" in length (end to end) so if you're in a small living space you'll need to know that. The keyboard and all the functions rock. It's a pretty sturdy electric piano. I hope it lasts me through my (probable) 10-year learning journey. Believe it or not, Grok AI helped me with all my questions about the best digital piano for a beginner. I had about four that I was interested in, I settled on this one with the most features and the biggest LCD screen. I had a user issue and contacted Yamaha via their website, and they replied within a couple of days - situation solved (I think). So yes, I recommend this digital piano (I got the black one) ;o}

Great keyboard! Teacher in music school as well as my neighbor ( another music professional) both highly recommended this Yamaha classic. My granddaughter loves to play it and weighted keys are a plus.

Exceptional value. Perfectly weighted keys, awesome sound, packed with features. It is not a light weight unit. I would call it somewhat portable but should have a case while traveling. Could not be .ore pleased. We also bought an aftermarket sustain petal to complete the setup. The OEM petal was not the best. The aftermarket petal is a terrific compliment. !!!!!! Yeah !!!!!

I love my DGX 670. I have had it for just over six months and play it nearly every day. At the time I bought it, I was upgrading from a 61 key beginner's piano but I knew I wanted something like this. I am currently learning via the Piano Adventures books and those have duet parts for the teacher to play. So, I have been learning the Teacher's part, recording it with the onboard recording feature and then playing a duet with myself. I have also played around with the accompaniment feature which is a great deal of fun. I've learned a few song by ear and my playing is Spartan for those songs so it is fun to have the accompaniment feature to liven my playing up. Now, if you are just starting out and not sure if you will stick with playing, this might be too much beast for your need and my 61 key beginner's piano did serve me well for my first year. So it is suitable for a dedicated beginner who desires a machine to grow into. I don't gig but I do wonder about its suitability for gigging. It is truly a portable grand piano but that means it ways 50 lbs and you can lug it around if you wish, it's not undoable, but do you want to do that? That is for each person to decide. Using the features is pretty easy. It has a nice, color display and it has a button called "Direct Access" which, when pressed, allows you to press another feature, say the built in metronome, and it lets you set the metronome as needed. It comes with a very nice owner's manual if you need extra help. And there are many tutorials online. Also, I bought a heavier X stand, actually a Z stand, I think it is called because my original x-stand just seemed too wobbly for a 50 lb instrument. I did not buy the optional stand nor did I purchase the three pedal option. At some point, I would like the three pedals but I don't know that I want the wooden stand. I'm sure someone has a tutorial on how to use the pedal system without the Yamaha stand. The bottom line this, this is a great piano and I'm sure I will be growing into it over the next few years. If I gig, I will probably get a lighter instrument and I will cross that path at that time.

I purchased this to replace a portable digital piano (Dexibell) that has great sound, but a noisy (Fatar) keybed. I have played GHS keybeds before, and found this one to be enjoyable. The sounds are nice. Compared to the Nord and Dexibell, I find the DGX CFX piano sound to be thin in comparison, but there's also a big price difference, and I still enjoy the CF and CFX piano sounds from Yamaha. The speakers pointing up rather than down or forward is a big plus, and I think they sound pretty good, though maybe a little shrill in the upper registers. The weight is heavy for being billed as a portable. I have owned a P125. Loved the weight,sound and key feel of it, but for the price difference, you get alot more piano with the DGX. I don't know if I will ever use the arranger , or many of the other functions. I purchased it as a portable piano with speakers to do some light gig work. Bottom line- It sounds very good at this price point, GHS is enjoyable and I don't feel like I'm restricted in anyway. Again, at this price point, 5 stars.

Fabulous quality keyboard, I will use this every day!

Works perfectly well with great sound and excellent performance so far 4 months used with no issues.

Great keyboard. Has so many features and piano sounds are so realistic. Great for beginners and professionals. Weighted keys make it feel like an acoustic piano. Only small complaint I have but really isn't a complaint, is that the volume isn't as loud as I thought it would be. Wish max volume was a little louder, but still a fantastic keyboard.

the best digital piano for the money

Sound quality is fantastic. It's bigger than the regular keyboard though. It will be best to get it with a stand. It's got some weight to it too.

I like the keyboard. I bought it for my son. He likes it
