  • I've had so many requests for this comparison that I thought it would be the first one I'd do with the new Kawai ES920. The competition is incredibly tight, which one will come out on top?

    Keep up the great work dude! Your videos are honestly really interesting to watch, and I could definitely say that I've taken a lot of points from your videos. I'd definitely consider one of these two for the next time I buy a new keyboard! Right now I've got a Yamaha DGX-650, and it works great, but your videos really give me insight on what to consider next, so thanks, and keep it up!

    Excellent comparison review. Brilliant presentation. Lots to think about. Time for a new portable piano. Think it’s going to be one of these!

    Great review James.I haven't played the ES920 so i can't say anything about it, but i have the P515 and i love it,love the heavy action and wooden keys.I also like the Sound of the CFX and Bosendorfer and the good built quality and that is heavy so its stays put where you put it.

    The big one! Thanks for this video. Hope to have one of these boards in the next twelve months. Don’t forget to review the Korg D1, low price and feels great, sounds awesome with headphones.

    Hi James, Thank you so much for this review. As you probably know I have waited a long time for you to do this comparison. The ES920 has been out in the UK for a couple of months now, similar price to the p515. I think you have done both pianos good reviews and I think it really is a matter of personal choice. I can only say to all who are interested in buying either one, go and try them, if possible side by side because it really is a matter of preference. My personal favourite is the Yamaha p515, but that's my choice. Thanks again for a brilliant review, by a most talented pianist. Just keep them coming.

    Great video again, thank you for providing such quick quality comparisons! I love the fullness of sound in the P515, while the ES920 has an open magical quality to the tone.

    A review of the ES520 would be great. Looks very interesting as a mid range digital

    Hi James, thank you very much for a detailed review on both electric Piano's. I agree with you on the built quality of the Yamaha, there's much more metal, and the plastics used are more sturdy. I know the P515 has been around for a couple of years but still is able to keep up with the new releases. James, because of your review, I think Yamaha is my preferred purchase. It would be very interesting to see when Yamaha will start releasing their new digital Piano's. Possibly another jump in sound and built quality. Once again, thank you James, and I wish you much success.

    Another stellar review, James ! PLEASE do a review of the Kawai MP7se. I am seriously considering buying the MP7se. I have watched every review on CZcams about it, but I would really like to watch one done by you. You are very honest and really tell it like it is.

    well James all i can say is thanks for your reviews, I thought the keys on the ES920 were much better than ES-8 yet still a little clunky left wanting, I'm happy i waited for the P-515 to come back in stock..

    Thank you James. Please do compare dgx 670 vs p515 just in terms of CFX sample

    The ES920 is 11.5 lbs lighter than either the P515 or the Kawai ES8. I don't think Kawai was just trying to cut corners. I for one appreciate the lighter weight as I do a lot of moving around with my portable.

    Great review! There really a match to each other. But I am also happy that I still can hold the p515 on top of my list. The sounds of the Kawai are good, really good. But some of the sounds, like the bösendorfer. There is just no match for that. That one is so good. And strange enough the guitar. I love that sound. But other than that there pretty much alike. You already mentioned that the sounds, and effects, can be altered in both of them but the standard autopan of the Kawai is just to strong in my tast. So, the p515 still stands. Thank you for sharing and playing.
