Roland - LX706-DR-WSB

Description

LX706 - The high-end home piano with six-speaker system, grand tone and ambience effects

For players investigating the Roland LX700 series and looking for the right balance between features and price, the LX706 demands a closer look. Designed for discerning pianists, the LX706 sits at the mid-point of the LX700 range, recreating the classic performance of an acoustic grand in a home-friendly format. Just like the flagship LX708 model, you'll find a choice of authentic piano tones and onboard ambience technology, plus a dynamic Hybrid Grand Keyboard to spark your creativity. But with a more compact cabinet, closed-lid design and six-speaker system, the LX706 matches its pro-level performance with a budget-conscious price.

Compact cabinet design that invites you to play
With its shorter cabinet height and closed-lid format, this sleek model is ideal for players who cant spare the space for the taller LX708. The clean lines and lustrous finish instantly catch the eye, while closer inspection reveals the signature build features that make the LX series so enticing. Traditional and timeless but with a twist the LX706 is an instrument that complements your living space without dominating it. Available in polished ebony, dark rosewood and charcoal.

Supports your technique with Hybrid Grand Keyboard & Progressive Damper Action pedals
From dramatic left-hand rhythms to delicate top-note trills, the LX706 will keep you inspired with its new Hybrid Grand Keyboard and Progressive Damper Action pedals. Every key on the LX706's Grand Hybrid keyboard is longer than on typical digital pianos; the extra length means the pivot point sits further back, so less pressure is needed to depress each key and your hands won't grow tired when playing over longer periods. The white keys combine sleek wooden sides with a durable inner frame for maintenance-free reliability. And when playing, you'll feel the ideal balance of pressure, momentum and return movement, along with smooth vertical travel, while the addition of pedals that enable a variety of advanced techniques makes this an authentic and thrilling piano experience.

Three-way, six-speaker system for room-filling sound
With a more streamlined take on the LX708's Acoustic Projection System, the LX706 is still powerful and flexible enough for any musical scenario, with a three-way, six-speaker layout. Each of the three pairs of speakers are optimised to deliver superior sound reproduction across the piano's dynamic range even down to the noise as the hammers strike the strings, or the resonance of the cabinet as the sound reverberates through the piano's body. Whether playing or streaming, you'll hear your music with crystal-clear clarity.

Winner of Prestigious Design Awards
With its attractive and innovative design, Roland's LX700 series has been internationally recognized by the largest and most respected design competitions in the world. The overall lineup received both the 2019 iF Design Award and Red Dot Product Design Award 2019.
