What customers say about "Key Specs"

Yamaha DGX-650 Digital Piano

This is a great keyboard. I had it out of the box and up and running in about 30 minutes. The touch of the keys is exactly like a real piano. The voices, accompaniments and all the features are great.
Excellent piano, especially for someone like me who has dabbled over the years and wishes finally to learn how to play with both hands and not just the ears.
Feature wise it is well ahead of its rivals in this segment of the market, nothing really comparable. 128 notes polyphony is more than enough.
I am a semi-experienced pianist, but for me piano is just a hobby. I grew up with a VERY old upright piano, but I love the flexibility of keyboards to play different sounds and add rhythms.
If you got this it mean you wanted a piano arranger and with limited possibilities like making your personal styles, modifying a style, muting a part of a style, you will be stuck with few yamaha styles that are not bad (not great either) and soon you will be tired of it all.

Yamaha DGX-660 Digital Piano

This one has all of the original quality and many more features, including three Piano pedals and more recording capacity as well as USB transfer capabilities....You will not be disapointed!
Has a great sound. Make sure you buy the foot pedal bar with it. You can spend a lifetime learning all the features on this piano. Well worth the money.
The graded hammer keys still have the same great feeling, and Yamaha did add more styles & voices into it.
Pleasantly surprised great quality for the price highly recommended product great key action easy operation and a very nice looking instrument.
Beautiful Grand Piano sound, to start off with. Way better than just a keyboard. Full 88 keys, just like a real piano. Keys that feel like a my old grand piano I use to have as a child.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Yamaha DGX-650 Digital Piano

This portable grand is definitely one of the best you can find in the market today. I enjoyed playing it and my hands never get tired even after playing for more than 5 hours.
Portable from room to room even when mounted on the very sturdy stand. Easy to detach from stand and take to a gig or on a trip.
Husband loves it. He said the keys "feel" like a real full size piano. Since he is just learning, I lock him in basement.
I purchased my first one of the DGX-650 to be portable between my church and home.
But it isn't perfect. For one thing, it is too heavy to really be a "portable grand", the down-side of fully-weighted keys.

Yamaha DGX-660 Digital Piano

If you don’t want the size of an acoustic piano or to spend twice as much on a better digital, you’re in for the best you can buy. This is certainly not a grand piano, but it makes nice sounds and has a nice feel.
Donated my older Clavinova to my music educator children and needed something a bit more portable with all the features.
Weight is about 100 pounds. It takes two people to lift the box, to put it together and lift piano onto the stand.
It is not easy as it mention "portable" it's a heavy piano needs extra care while you move on, just can't be one that can handle much to pack and go.

What customers say about "Features"

Yamaha DGX-650 Digital Piano

The LP-7A works great but it does not have the assignable function like that of the Clavinovas. Nevertheless, I still bought it to maximize my piano experience.
The apps available for iOS devices looks great too. One thing I hate about these latest Yamaha apps is the fact that it doesn't have an Android counterpart. I just want Yamaha to know that not all of the pianists use iOS devices.
The fun arranger features definitely keep me playing
The addition of foldable travel bag which could double as a piano cover would be a nice bonus and one Yamaha might wish to add. As would a stand including pedals instead of adding an aftermarket unit on the floor.
My last complaint is that it is too difficult to navigate through all of the Category menus to make the settings I want, the downside of a clean-looking, clutter-free keyboard.

Yamaha DGX-660 Digital Piano

I'm more into learning songs from listening to them, so the feature to play music from my phone using 3.5mm cable is a must have for me. I can listen to both of the music and me playing from either the piano's speakers or my headphones.
Many great additional features that I will need to learn (such as easy cords), but the MIDI function is great and lets me move performances from one place to another
You can use it as a midi controller through your computer. You can play it by itself with its nice builtin speakers. Everything i was looking for
The piano sounds are VERY realistic and if you record them, it is hard (or maybe impossible) to tell the difference between it and a real piano.
The one thing I look forward to is when my daughter comes to visit, I can have her play and save a recording to keep and listen to. I also work with the tempo to make me count more.
