CS10 will be great. When I was shopping DP's I played the CA95 and the Kurzweil CUP2 side-by-side in the showroom. At the time I was thinking that if only the CA95 had the CUP2 polished ebony look it would be an amazing DP... and now we have it, summer 2013.

The CS-10 is pretty much "CA-95 in a polished ebony coat".

Sorry, I don't understand: "Ultimate Hybrid Piano" what Hybrid stands for? Isn't it for the cabinet look only?!

Would that I could have waited for this instead of getting my CA95. Oh well, save a bit of money I guess :P

Sorry, I don't understand: "Ultimate Hybrid Piano" what Hybrid stands for? Isn't it for the cabinet look only?! "Hybrid" is just a contemporary marketing word used in so many industries these days. I guess it sounds better than crossbreed, mixture, fusion, etc In this case hybrid just simply means that it has components of an AP + DP = HP (Hybrid Piano), It certainly separates itself from "digital piano" IMO. I would expect an HP to be superior to a DP from a marketing standpoint.

Marketing indeed! Yamaha's turn to respond to Kawai hijacking the use of 'their' marketing term 'hybrid'. I assume it's the cabinet and soundboard in this case? I played a CS9 several times befor purchasing my current DP. It was a fantastic instrument with a lovely cabinet design and finish. I'm sure the CS10 is a worthy successor.

Sorry, I don't understand: "Ultimate Hybrid Piano" what Hybrid stands for? Isn't it for the cabinet look only?! Kawai misuses for marketing purpose this term for the CA95 and CS10 because of their real soundboard made of wood like real piano... The action is the same as CA65, and 95, and therefore not hybrid in the yamaha sense

The action is the same as CA65, and 95, and therefore not hybrid in the yamaha sense So if Hybrid is based on action, would Kawai have to use the Millennium III Action in the CS10? Would you consider that to be hybrid same as Yamaha?
