Roland have created some of the best digital pianos ever, and the LX700 is currently leading the line. Combining contemporary mechanics with classic sound and feel, LX700 pianos are the go-to choice for pianists after world class performance.
The LX708 is the flagship piano of the LX700 range. Boasting the most in-depth sound design, tallest cabinet and multiple speakers, the LX-708 is the closest you’ll get to a grand piano without shelling out tens of thousands on the real thing.
“Experience a grand piano in your own home through this magnificent digital upright. Get the most out of the Roland LX708 with the new and exclusive Piano Every Day app. With no maintenance costs and technology only Roland could offer, this piano, paired with a 10-year warranty, is a no-brainer.” – Pianist Magazine
Sound
The LX700 is founded on the very basics – exquisite tone and elegant touch-sensitive keys. It packs the digital prowess of the SuperNATURAL modelling engine housing 307 different tones from two grand piano voicings – European and American – and a variety of strings and organs.
A built-in LED screen provides a clear settings overview, as well as the ability to select one of 10 temperaments and a range of ambient effects.
Keys
The LX708 utilises Roland’s Hybrid Grand Keyboard for a greater acoustic-like response when you strike the keys. The keys are longer than the typical digital piano length and requires less pressure to depress the key, reducing the strain on your fingers. The Hybrid Grand Keyboard strikes the perfect balance of pressure, momentum, and return movement to capture that acoustic piano playing experience. The LX708 responds to all the nuances in your playing including advanced techniques; it even reproduces the physical vibrations that resonate through the keyboard on an acoustic piano.
Speakers
Roland’s Acoustic Projection System offers power and immersion to fill a living room and more. Each two speakers are split into pairs and optimised for superior sound reproduction across the dynamic range.
Open the top lid to recreate an acoustic piano’s overtones. Intelligent speaker placement makes sure you get the most out of your playing technique. Whether you’re playing or streaming music via Bluetooth connectivity, you’re sure to hear pristine clarity.
It optimises play through headphones with 3D ambience – a much improved option than simply switching the sound from speakers to ears. You’ll hear extreme nuances in your playing.
Connectivity
Improve your playing with the help of your phone or tablet. Make the most of apps and videos by connecting your device via USB or Bluetooth. Play along to songs on Spotify, or view sheet music which you can scroll through using the LX700’s pedal.
Also included is a Twin piano mode for two-player practice and an essential metronome.
