After months of researching and test driving I finally decided on the Kawai CP177D. On my short list was the Yamaha CVP307/309 and the Roland KM107/115. All are great instuments but the Kawai sold me because of it's feel. Price was also a concern, and the Kawai dealer was willing to deal (a lot).
Thanks to this forum, especially the Kawai fanatics, for helping me decide.
FYI - I bought it from Park Llafet @ Hollywood Music in Portland, OR 503 595 4874
If you are looking for a great deal on a Kawai, give him a call

Do they have MP8s????? I've been looking for MP8s in Seattle. From my searching on the internet/telephone, I could not find anyone in Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, or Vancouver BC that sold them. If they have them in Portland I might make the 2 hour trek.

Anyway, congrats on the purchase!

Charlie - I talked to Park @ HOllywood Music. They don't carry Kawai stage pianos. They sell for $1999 on Musiciansfriend.com but you probably want to at least try one first. Park thought that PortlandMusicCompany might have them Any way good luck in your search

Congrats on your new DP!

Petsounds - Great choice and congrats. What price did you pay for your CP177? I am getting ready to get one and trying to figure out what my target should be.
