The NV6 is the latest hybrid upright in Kawai’s NOVUS Series, combining true acoustic piano mechanics with cutting-edge digital innovation for a premium playing experience at home or on stage. At its core is Kawai’s renowned Millennium III Hybrid upright piano action with real wooden keys and a genuine damper mechanism—providing the nuanced response of an acoustic upright. New to the NV6 is the SK-EX Competition Grand piano sound, recorded from the player’s position and reproduced using Kawai’s multi-channel SK-EX Rendering engine for stunning clarity and realism. A redesigned speaker system featuring new tweeters, top-facing drivers, and a refined soundboard speaker delivers powerful, balanced sound throughout the room. Bluetooth MIDI and Audio v5, along with USB-C and built-in USB audio interface, offer seamless integration with modern devices and music production setups. Additional highlights include a matte anti-glare touchscreen, built-in lesson songs, ambient effects, and advanced sound customization via the updated Virtual Piano Artisan feature. Housed in a compact and elegant upright cabinet, the NV6 blends the soul of an acoustic piano with the versatility of digital technology—perfect for serious players seeking authenticity without compromise.
