This is a great practice piano with the touch and feel of an expensive concert grand but it will not fill your home with a true piano sound. The built-in speakers have a tinny quality... but with headphones the sound improves so much you imagine yourself at a grand piano in Carnegie Hall. Plugging the unit into your stereo for better sound might be an option here. Recording a performance and playing it back to your computer as a MIDI file is quick easy. The only design flaw was putting the function buttons too close to the keyboard. They're too easy to hit while playing... knocking your piano into harpsicord mode or activating the metronome. In summary, an ideal practice piano for a beginner or accomplished pianist who needs to work frequently without disturbing others.
