Reasons to choose the Kawai DG30 Digital Grand Piano

The Grand Piano Your Home Deserves

The Grand Piano Your Home Deserves

The DG30's luxurious ebony polish cabinet, opening topboard with decorative braid trim, polished wooden soundboard, and elegant silver-chrome fittings create the unmistakable presence of a grand piano. The flat fascia and tall upper board give it a traditional yet minimalist quality - sophisticated without being ostentatious. This is the instrument that becomes the heart of your home, the piece that family and guests gravitate toward, the backdrop for countless memories. Whether it's Sunday morning improvisations, your child's first recital piece, or quiet evenings lost in Chopin, the DG30 elevates every moment with its timeless elegance.
Authentic Grand Piano Touch

Authentic Grand Piano Touch

The DG30 features Kawai's Responsive Hammer III action with grade-weighted keys, let-off simulation, counterweights, triple-sensor detection, and Ivory Touch key surfaces. This is the same authentic touch found in Kawai's acclaimed digital pianos - smooth, natural, responsive, and confidence-building. When you sit at the DG30, your fingers meet real piano feel, not a compromise. The action responds to your lightest pianissimo and your most powerful fortissimo with equal grace, allowing you to develop proper technique and express genuine emotion. This is touch that honours your playing, whether you're a beginner finding your way or an experienced pianist maintaining your craft.
The Sound of Japan's Premier Grand Pianos

The Sound of Japan's Premier Grand Pianos

At the heart of the DG30 lives the magnificent tone of the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX Concert Grand and SK-5 Studio Grand, plus Kawai's acclaimed EX concert grand, instruments that grace the world's most prestigious stages and competitions. Every key recorded individually, captured at multiple dynamic levels using Progressive Harmonic Imaging technology, then delivered through a 4-speaker system designed to mirror acoustic projection. Lower frequencies resonate from beneath, mid and high frequencies project outward and reflect off the topboard, just like a real grand. The result is sound with depth, character, and soul that fills your room and stirs your heart.
Grand Presence, Practical Reality

Grand Presence, Practical Reality

At just 87 cm deep, the DG30 fits in spaces where acoustic grands simply cannot - apartments, smaller living rooms, studies, or any room where you want grand piano elegance without sacrificing precious space. Yet despite its compact footprint, the DG30 commands attention and respect. The two-position topboard allows you to adjust the visual aesthetic and tonal character - fully open for bright projection, partially closed for mellower warmth. The broad, adjustable music rest accommodates ambitious works and can be laid flat for composing. This is luxury designed for real life, not just showrooms.
Play Anytime, Without Compromise

Play Anytime, Without Compromise

The DG30 gives you the freedom acoustic grands cannot: practice at midnight with Spatial Headphone Sound technology that reduces listening fatigue and enhances depth. Record performances as MP3/WAV files to share with family. Play along with your favourite songs via Bluetooth Audio. Adjust the piano's voicing, touch weight, and resonances using Virtual Technician to suit your personal taste. Connect wirelessly via Bluetooth to music apps that enhance learning. The DG30 adapts to your life - your schedule, your space, your musical journey - without ever asking you to compromise on beauty or quality.
A Piano That Brings People Together

A Piano That Brings People Together

The DG30 isn't just an instrument, it's a gathering place. The Four Hands mode lets teacher and student, parent and child, or two friends play side-by-side, sharing the joy of music. The stunning cabinet invites guests to linger, to ask questions, to request a song. The rich selection of sounds - electric pianos, organs, strings, choirs - means there's always something new to explore together. This is the piano that becomes part of your family's story, the backdrop for celebrations, the comfort during quiet moments, the inspiration that turns an ordinary evening into something memorable.

Music is at the heart of everything we do.

It brings stories to life, shaping moments with emotion.

It’s there when we celebrate, when we reflect, and when we connect.

At the centre of it all - sits the piano.

It’s not about perfection or mastery.

But a companion for creating memories and marking life’s most meaningful passages.

A voice when words fall short, a touchstone for joy, longing, and everything in between.

More than just an instrument, it’s a memory maker.

Through life’s highs and lows, it endures.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The DG30 is perfect for families and individuals who want the elegance and presence of a grand piano in their home but need the practicality of a digital instrument. It's ideal for those living in apartments or smaller spaces where an acoustic grand won't fit (the DG30 is just 87 cm deep), families who need silent practice options, players who want low-maintenance luxury without tuning and regulation, and anyone who appreciates beautiful design and wants their piano to be a statement piece in their living space. Whether you're a beginner inspired by beauty, a parent supporting a child's musical journey, or an experienced player wanting grand piano aesthetics with modern convenience, the DG30 delivers.

The DG30 and Concert Artist series both deliver excellent performance, but with different focuses. The DG30 features Responsive Hammer III action and prioritises grand piano aesthetics - luxurious ebony polish cabinet, opening topboard, polished wooden soundboard, and compact 87 cm depth that fits where acoustic grands cannot. It's ideal for those who want visual elegance and grand piano presence as a centerpiece in their home. The Concert Artist series (CA401, CA501, CA701, CA901) features upright-style cabinets with progressively advanced actions and sound engines - the CA401 and CA501 use Grand Feel Compact action with wooden keys, while the CA701 and CA901 feature Grand Feel III action. The CA series also offers larger, more powerful speaker systems. Both lines deliver authentic piano performance - the choice comes down to whether you prioritise grand piano elegance and compact design (DG30) or upright practicality with the most advanced touch and audio technology (CA series).

The DG30 features the magnificent tone of three world-class instruments: the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX Concert Grand, the SK-5 Studio Grand, and Kawai's acclaimed EX concert grand. Each of the 88 keys was recorded individually at multiple dynamic levels using Progressive Harmonic Imaging technology, preserving the unique harmonic character of each note. The sound is delivered through a carefully designed 4-speaker system that mirrors acoustic projection with lower frequencies from beneath and mid/high frequencies projecting outward and reflecting off the topboard. Combined with studio-quality reverb and Virtual Technician customisation, the DG30 delivers sound that's rich, expressive, and emotionally engaging.

Absolutely - that's one of its greatest strengths. At just 87 cm deep, the DG30 occupies a fraction of the space required by an acoustic grand piano, making it perfect for apartments, smaller living rooms, studies, or any space where you want grand piano elegance without sacrificing room. Despite its compact footprint, the DG30 maintains the visual presence and sophistication of a much larger instrument. The two-position topboard also allows you to adjust the aesthetic - fully open for maximum visual impact, or partially closed for a more subtle profile while creating a mellower tonal character.

The DG30 seamlessly blends classic elegance with modern convenience. Integrated Bluetooth MIDI and Audio let you connect wirelessly to music apps or stream audio through the piano's speakers. Virtual Technician allows personalised sound adjustments. Spatial Headphone Sound technology enhances depth and reduces listening fatigue during silent practice. USB connectivity enables MP3/WAV playback and recording, MIDI file playback, and data storage. The PianoRemote app (iOS/Android) provides wireless control. Four Hands mode lets two people play together. The Grand Feel Pedal System replicates the SK-EX grand's pedal positioning and weighting. Every modern convenience is elegantly integrated, so you get the best of both worlds - timeless beauty and contemporary functionality.
