That's great, GeorgeStorm. If they are willing to keep the price and offer a reduced stand later on, go for them.

Let us know when you get your new ES7!


Reidys offereda slight discount on the HM4, but not as much.

So on Saturday I should be getting:
ES7
Basic X cross stand
Headphones (didn't actually check model since I'm not that bothered, but it didn't seem worth it to try and save a little bit more by taking the headphones out)
Classenti gig bag (thrown in for free)

Then at some point in the new year once stock comes in, a HM4 smile

Looking forward to it laugh

Great !

I am glad you were able to pull the trigger on that one.

You are going to be very pleased with it.

Now I just need to work out what I'm going to do headphone wise in the long term, since I can use the included headphones to begin with, but I'll want to use my current ones/get a different nice pair in the long run.

Congratulations on your purchase! You are going to love it. Be sure to get some good quality headphones to take full advantage of the amazing detailed sounds ES7 puts out. So many to choose from and so personal, but google headphones within pianoworld and you will get some good advice to start.

I will definitely get the nicer stand, this one wobbles, a lot.
Haven't tested it with headphones yet, need to try and actually get some music for it.... (don't have a printer and realised I've left all of my books at home!)
I'll probably try to print something at work on Monday smile

Yeh ... It is hardly even playable with that X-stand.

The furniture stand will be a huge improvement.

It definitely adds another dimension to playing when the piano is moving :P

Tested it with my headphones, and it seems to be absolutely fine laugh
So it turns out it can drive high impedance headphones with no issue at all (mine are 250ohm)

Congrats!

Perhaps you would like to add your purchase info to the 'Prices Paid' for others to reference in the future?

Cheers,

Definitely go Yamaha P-105 or P-155 if you can stretch to it: portability (so you can get it through your front door!), great sound quality and pretty decent touch.

We've done some reviews on these two at digitalpianocompare if that helps:
