Experience the next revolution in acoustic piano resonance.
The Kawai GX-2 AURES2 Hybrid grand piano is the meeting point of tradition and transformation, a world-class acoustic instrument elevated by the limitless creative potential of digital technology.
Built in Japan, the GX-2 AURES2 begins with the celebrated foundation of the GX-2 grand: a 180cm cabinet crafted for expressive resonance, a tapered solid spruce soundboard that sings with colour and power, and the acclaimed Millennium III action for effortless, nuanced touch. Its hybrid inner rim, extended spruce keys with NEOTEX surfaces, and robust CORE structural system ensure a playing experience that is both inspiring and enduring.
But the GX-2 AURES2 is more than just an exceptional acoustic piano. With the touch of a button, you unlock a new dimension: silent practice with headphones, layering or splitting digital sounds, and performing through Kawai’s innovative Soundboard Speaker System that transforms the entire piano into a resonant amplifier. The advanced GP Touch Muting System and high-resolution optical sensors preserve every nuance of your artistry, whether you’re playing acoustically or exploring the instrument’s vast digital palette, including the flagship SK-EX Rendering engine and a suite of inspiring sounds.
This is a piano designed for those who want more than just an instrument. It is a companion for every stage of your musical journey, supporting quiet late-night practice, bold creative experimentation, and unforgettable performances shared with others. The GX-2 AURES2 empowers you to create, connect, and express yourself in ways only possible when tradition and innovation work together in harmony.
