Yamaha P70 Description
Not quite Yamaha's entry-level stage/practise piano (that honour goes to the almost equally pointless P65), the P70 has more voices and demo songs. Though with just a headphone socket for output and 32-note polyphony the P70 is hardly a proper stage piano. A nice home/practice piano with decent sounds and Yamaha's Graded Hammer keyboard action, and 6W per channel from the internal speakers.
Many competitive products at this price point have 64-note polyphony and 1/4 inch outputs for connection to external amplification.
Size: 1,330(W) x 355(D) x 133(H) mm; weight: 13kg
