Key Features
  • Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) Technology: A premier feature showcasing Yamaha’s innovation in material treatment, A.R.E. allows the SX Series pianos to emit the warm and mature tones akin to an instrument that has been refined over years of playing. This technology enhances the tonal quality and resonance of the piano, ensuring an unparalleled auditory experience.
  • Specially Selected Wood for Rims: Meticulously chosen for their acoustic properties and built with thicker layers compared to previous series, the SX Series stands out for its added richness, clarity, and full-bodied bass and mid-range tones, fostering a warm and inviting sound ideal for any musical performance.
  • Exclusive Hammer Felt: With a newly developed formula, the hammer felt on the SX Series contributes to a wide array of tonal colors and expressive nuance. This feature ensures the artist’s tactile connection with the piano, translating to clear and beautiful sounds across all dynamic ranges.
  • Robust Back Frame: Approximately 20% thicker than its predecessor, the S Series, the SX Series' back frame is engineered to resist immense forces and facilitate a resonant reverberation. Its rigidity underpins the tuning stability and longevity of the piano’s sound.
  • Soundboard Composition with Crown: Borrowing craftsmanship techniques from the flagship CFX series, the SX Series features a European spruce soundboard with a crown that excels at transmitting string vibrations. This provides powerful projection and a sustain that is capable of filling concert venues, while ensuring diverse tonal expression.
  • Hand-Wound Strings: Crafted by skilled technicians, the hand-wound strings endow the SX Series with a harmonious voice, enhancing the sound resonance and ensuring that each note is rich with satisfying overtones.
  • Modern and Elegant Design: The SX Series boasts not only high-quality sound, but also a contemporary design with graceful curves that reflect the elegance of its sonic character. The aesthetic compliments the precision craftsmanship of Yamaha, making it a visually stunning centerpiece for any stage or salon.
