This review is from: Yamaha DGX230AD 76 Key Portable Grand with powerI borrowed DGX230 from a friend and was pretty happy with it for a couple of months (till the end of the loan). Happy enough to order one, which turned out to be defective. The lowest "B"-key was much harder to press than its neighbors and took about twice as much pressure to go all the way down (yes, I did measure it with weights). It did "make a sound", that is why I put "(mechanically) defective" in the title.I did like the first keyboard, though.Its touch, though not weighted and softer than typical piano touch, might still sometimes remotely resemble piano touch for the following reason. When the key is being pressed, the point of "maximum resistance" occurs near the top position, then the key goes down more easily (sorry for this clumsy description). Of course, nonweighted keys do not have any noticeable inertia, but that hardly mattered to me when playing slowly. The touch was much better than in Casio's WK200 or WK500.(By the way, the defective key on DGX-230 did not have this feature: I would have to press harder and harder as it went lower.)Other than that, DGX-230 is light and good-looking, and there are some nice voices among roughly 500 XGlite patches....
This review is from: Yamaha DGX230AD 76 Key Portable Grand with powerThis keyboard was a Christmas gift for my son and it greatly exceeded my expectations. My son had an inexpensive Casio keyboard that had long ago served its purpose, although I didn't realize it at the time. My son asked for a better keyboard since he's interested in playing in a group with some friends. What I like about Amazon is that they make it so easy to get a lot of information about the product you're looking for, and even include links for alternative options. Once my son opened his new gift, I was impressed by the much more sophisticated sound of the Yamaha keyboard, its expanded capabilities and the ease with which my son transitioned to its use. My son would seldom use his old keyboard to practice, but with the new Yamaha I see him practice much more and enjoying it. The Yamaha DGX230AD allowed me to exceed my son's expectations without breaking the bank....
This review is from: Yamaha DGX230AD 76 Key Portable Grand with powerI'm very pleased that I purchased this keyboard for my home. I can't believe the price of the unit was so low for the quality and features. This may be the entertainment bargain of the decade at Amazon. This is a lot of fun to play with even if you have limited talent in music. I play it about 5 times a week in the evenings and it is good for destressing at the end of the day. I was debating getting a system with fewer keys, but I'm glad I went with this system for basically the same price. There are so many features on this system that I have yet to try out everything. I've tried out most of the voices and have no complaints. This has everything I could possibly want and more for a home system. This system also comes with a power supply included, so no need to buy one separately. It does not come with a sustain pedal though. I plan to buy one soon. Since I do woodworking, I made my own stand, so I can't comment on the quality of the stands offered by Yamaha. There is a wire-style stand and a wooden stand, so I think the wooden stand would be the way to go if you were using this in a permanent location....
