I bought NV5s a year ago and am a little disappointed. In the SK-EX settings, the sound is strangely reflected and "whistling". KAWAI EUROPE did not really help me with this problem. If the piano is close to the wall of the room, the sound is tragic. I'm playing on headphones, so I don't care. However, KAWAI is not as high-end as I imagined.
I agree. There are no technicians for help. I could have purchased less expensive one.
Definitely very innovative technology. It’s done very much accurately. I just have a one question in my mind that the action of real piano may effected in humidity climate like some acoustic piano behaves in climate but on acoustic we have provision to fix the dehumidifier but what is the other option to make action perform hassle free in any climate? It’s an ultimately digital and many electronics parts inside the pianos. I don’t know if such issues come then how to fix? Thanks ❤❤❤
Thank you for your comment Bhavesh. As you may be aware, Kawai upright and grand piano actions (including those utilised by the Novus NV5S and NV10S) incorporate ABS Carbon parts that are less susceptible to changes in humidity than conventional wooden action parts. However, with that being said, we would still recommend placing a piano in an environment that has stable temperature and humidity levels in order to ensure the instrument remains in good condition for many years. We hope this helps.
They shouldn't use the line out sounds they should have recorded the sounds from the studios. I've heard nv10 and 5 recorded in an acoustic studio and it's great.
A wonderful video with 2 amazing pianos and 2 amazing musicians. Thank you very much for the pleasure of your performance.
Great pianists, great pianos! Takeshi and Mina should have both played the NV5S and the NV10S; they played two different pieces after all. The NV10S is more of a concert piano than the more intimate NV5S.
I wish it had a store on Bangladesh too. I'm really fascinated by this piano tunes but we have only a store for Yamaha. I'm actually planning on buying one but I wanted KAWAI piano but alas!
I was excited owning one because I saw the best reviews. Now I have had nearly 2 years. I don’t think it is that worth. I could have spend less money with other digital piano. I realized that there are no Kawai special technicians. It took me over a year to have someone come to see my piano issues. He only solved one problem - pedal was not responsive . Still have squeaky noise . Also my piano has ringing sound issues , he had no clue. He said he was not Kawai tech? But general digital piano tech. I don’t feel much different from less priced kawai digital piano. If I could buy one , I’ll spend less money with other one.
Hello Jae Shin, we're sorry to read that you are not fully satisfied with your piano. Please contact Kawai Japan's overseas customer support via the following URL and we shall try to assist you. www.kawai-global.com/enquiry/
Thanks for the great video. I'm wondering if there is a recording from an external microphone to compare the sound with an acoustic instrument.
Thank you for your comment! Most, if not all, digital/hybrid piano product videos produced by Kawai Japan (and subsidiaries) capture sound directly from the instruments' Line Out connectors. However, we will certainly consider also recording using external microphones, provided the results are a faithful recreation of the sound produced when sitting at the instrument.
Amazing instruments!!!!
I have a suggestion to make the music stand higher from the keyboard (or make a mechanism with which you can set the position of the music stand) to prevent injuries to the cervical spine. Because you have to bend your neck unphysiologically when reading the lower lines of notes.
Thank you for your comment. Are we correct to assume that you are referring to the NV5S music rest position? If so, this position is largely dictated by the upright piano-influenced piano cabinet (the music rest position should be comparable to that of a similarly sized Kawai 'K' series upright), however we will pass on your feedback to the product development team for their consideration.
@@KawaiPianosGlobal Yes, this applies to the NV5S. Some acoustic piano manufacturers have done just that. They moved the hinges and the music rest bar higher on the same keyboard cover.
@@sarcosil Thank you for confirming that you are referring to the NV5S. We will pass on your comments to the product development team for their consideration. If you would be willing to share some examples of upright pianos that incorporate a raised music rest design, please feel to contact Kawai Japan directly via the enquiry form at the following URL: www.kawai-global.com/enquiry/ - thanks again!

残念ながら響きの余韻のようなものが感じられませんでした。
Kawai NV5S is a good hybrid piano..the action and response is excellent…btw, base on current market demand, most buyers should targeting the action mechanism & inner voice quality more on digital piano..most buyers of this type product will almost only fully using the instrument with putting headphone on without create external noise to neighboour where sound board and speaker will be a less value added features..hope one day Kawai may brave and innovative enough to release a similar version with directly removing the sound board & even output speaker..the cut budget of sound board & speaker may instead put on focusing the inner voice quality, grand piano action mechanism & responsiveness and allow 2 headphones output at the same time (produce a piano that only can be heard with headphone on)..this should will be a new game changer of this type product’s market and attracting many acoustic pianists..strongly suggesting Kawai may do the survey on that for the possibilities..
Hello Chan You, thank you for your comment. Generally speaking, Kawai is focussed on developing instruments that appeal to as broad a range of consumers as possible. The Novus NV5S and NV10S are already relatively niche pianos, therefore removing the ability for either model to produce sound may impair their perceived viability as an acoustic piano replacement for a large number of customers. It should also be noted that many Kawai digital and hybrid piano instruments already incorporate two headphone connectors, and that both connectors can be used simultaneously. Thank you once again for your feedback, we will pass your comments on to the product planning department for their consideration.
@@KawaiPianosGlobal , it is not suggesting to removing the current good features of NV5S instead hopefully one day Kawai may consider open a new product line that without the mentioned soundboard and speaker feature (but with grand piano action mechanism) as considered less value added feature to certain extent of buyers who worrying / limited by practice’s environment & hour especially on current society’’s modern living structure…Revolution always come from innovative & crazy ideas..anyway, definitely appreciating on the attention’s paid & feedback..
Hello Chan You, thank you for your reply. It's an interesting suggestion, and one that we will certainly bear in mind.
Beautiful playing,
In Korea! Really really want to get this one! Please come to Korea...
You Have Samick which is Real Acoustic... I'd go for Ed Seiler produced By Samick... I'm looking everywhere for a Samick JS122NS in Saudi Arabia without any luck..
Can we use headset for 5s?
Hello Carol, yes both the NV5S and NV10S feature headphone connectors, allowing the instruments to be played silently.
We would recommend the Kawai SH-9 headphones for use with Kawai digital and hybrid pianos:

@@KawaiPianosGlobal Thanks a lot! Is the material for 5s keyboard plastic or wood?
@Carol Zhang The NV10S and NV5S instruments use essentially the same keyboard action as their acoustic grand and upright piano counterparts, including the long wooden keys. For more information, please refer product pages at the following URLs:

@@carolzhang5076 The Novus NV5S keys and 'K Series' upright piano keys are both made from wood.
How impressive to Fake a Real Acoustic Piano and sell it in the range price of the Real Acoustic.. I'd go for Acoustic, with a Silent System if needed...
acoustic with a silent system is much more expensive, than either of these. its a digital piano. its never going to sound perfect. what sets these instruments apart is that the action is real, so there is little compromise in feel.
They are hybrid pianos, not digitals. These pianos are always perfectly tuned and are objectively a better instrument than any expensive vertical piano
Credi veramente che siano migliori di un piano verticale di buona fattura?quale dei 2?
