Would these be good for a starter?

[@illusionyx907]

Yamaha's p-125 keybed is not good but sound engine is fine. What about Casio px 870 /ap 470 + Kawai kdp 120 in this price range....???

[@jazzzman1000]

For under $700 the P-125 keyboard is pretty darn good.

@@jazzzman1000I’m stuck between the kawai Kdp75 and the es-120

[@Persun_McPersonson]

​@@rainypath96 The ES-120 has more voices and slightly-better speakers (only 1 W difference for each side) and is more portable but at the cost of a cheaper, plastic chassis. The KDP-75 has quite a few less voices, only marginally-less-powerful speakers, and is less portable but looks and feels very nice. The '120 may be more wiggly to play on but has a pretty quiet action. The body of the '75 might be more stable and less suseptible to shaking from hard playing, but is said by some to amplify the sound of the action somewhat, which may be undesirable.

@@rainypath96 What is your use case? It depends on how and where your will use it. I have a Kawai MP11SE which is just amazing to play, but limited on sounds and super heavy. It sits in my studio but I don't gig with it.

@@MichaelLewandowski-xu1nk I'm not the world-famous Jazz(z) Man, but I can offer some insight. There's going to have to be a compromise made here, based on your specific goals. If you want to prioritize features and having some casual fun jam sessions, or perhaps composing some multi-instrument tunes, then the DGX-670 is a fine choice. However, the GH-S action it uses isn't ideal for trying to advance in your piano playing ability for over five years up to a decade into the future, as it is going to somewhat bottleneck you after a few years (assuming you progress at a steady pace). However, while there is going to be a limit in ease of technical execution on any action in this price range, some actions get you farther than others: if you're willing to have less instrument voices and arranger features in exchange for a better, more responsive, expressive, and less limiting keybed, then the Kawai ES-120 and its RH-C action is your best bet within your budget. Take your pick between overall features vs. the keys themselves; either instrument is perfectly good for its purpose.

There is no Z in Casio, it is a soft s.

[@Persun_McPersonson]

There are several things wrong with this: 1. The reason there is a distinction between a "soft S" and "hard S" in the first place is because both sounds are made by the letter S. Barely any words that have the hard S sound in them spell it with a Z. Your argument is like saying, "There is no Z in 'keys', it's a soft S." 2. Whether a word with an S in it is pronounced with a soft S or hard S is dependent on dialect. Some people pronounce "houses" as _houssizz,_ others as _houzizz._
