Decisions to be made…

Post by Cyrano »

Hi guys, I have to buy a digital piano (my old gear has been stolen).

My key requirement: nice keybed, good sound, onboard decent speakers, audio and midi over USB.

I am torn between B2SN and LP380u, but in Italy is very difficult to find these models in a store to personally test them.

So I hope someone can help.

Doubts:

1) keybed: is NH decent, or too far from RH3 quality?

2) LP 380u is a very old instrument, and the samples and nuances’ engine could be outdated. Moreover, no Italian sample - which I like a lot - on it. B2 samples sound somehow “fresher”.

3) string and damper resonance: I cannot understand if both models have this feature or not.

4) no layer/split on B2 - it is not that I badly need this feature, but it seems to me a little bizarre that such a common feature is non available even in an entry level instrument.

5) speakers quality: do the more powerful LP380 ones (with dedicated speaker box - make the difference?
