Yamaha U1 and Kawai K50, which one is better?

sumyuetma

Dear All Mum,

I would like to buy a piano for my daughter who has just began to learn playing piano. I would like to buy the Yamaha U1 or Kawai K50, but I don't know which one is better. Could any one give some opinions / suggestions for me? Ming2, can you give some suggestion? Thanks a lot.

The price for Kawai K50 is higher than Yamaha U1 around HK$2xxx after considering the discount.

Some comments in the net said the sound of Yamaha U1 is brighter, but less mellow comparing to Kawai. And the keyboard of Kawai is more tighter which is good for "練指力". However, some technician for tuner said the "琴膽" of Yamaha is better so the Yamaha piano will become some stable.

       Gratefully if anyone can give the opinions/suggestions for me, so I can make up my mind.

     Thanks again.

我自己覺得邊個牌子都好, 都要睇隻琴既touching, 音色 同 action

kawai 一般既action 比yamaha 快同重, 音色一般會rich 一d , 不過yamaha 係tom lee 總代理, quality 比kawai 穩定

不過我自己小小既意見, 未必個個人岩聽, 就係我覺得yamaha 無kawai 甘耐用, yamaha 係各方面都好平均既琴, 個別琴既問題無kawai 甘多, 不過真係無kawai 既壽命甘長
