Yamaha P145 & Yamaha P225! What are the Differences Between These Digital Pianos? | Gear4music Keys

[@PanicBeach]

I want to buy a digital piano and if it was just for me I would get the P-225 but I also want my kids to take piano lessons and I think the P-145 would be more suitable for them as they learn to play. Based on looking at photos - the built-in music stand on the P-145 is closer to the keys and perfect either for printed music or for an iPad. The stand on the P-225 is further from the keys. Also - when you combine the P-145 with the L-100 piano stand and the LP-5A triple pedal, the whole system appears to be more kid-proof and hard-wearing than the P-225 with L-200 stand and LP-1 pedals which look much more attractive but also more fragile. That's my impression anyway - based on watching videos and looking at photos!

Definitely buy the p225 way better price to performance. It has better cfx sample

[@mountainmoss6391]

Great video, thanks alot!!

[@toblobs]

Solid review, thank you!

[@dave3076]

Helpful overview. Thank you.

[@giusgius9299]

What about Keyboard settings and Touch curve present in P-145 that I think is a fantastic optional? Is it present in 225 too? Next days I will buy the new piano of my new youth and they tried to convince me to buy Casio. I answered: please, don’t confuse a legend with a watch.

Can you make a comparison video with dgx670?

[@jimbrownza]

Gents, would I be right in thinking that the P145 is an upgrade to the P45, and the P225 is an upgrade to the P125? One could be forgiven for thinking the P145 is better than the P125, since numerically 145>125 but Yamaha's own web site says the P145 is entry level, which makes me think it's an upgrade to the P45.

[@ayrtoninchejanampa6874]

Así es, lo primero que dijiste es correcto

[@kathydaniel2718]

it is and upgrade from the P45

[@SteveBlancoMusicianWarrior]

Great explanation.I bought a P225.

[@Sonic-Boom]

Me too, and very pleased with it.

[@Caleblmao]

I'm thinking about getting a p225. Do you still love yours?

[@SteveBlancoMusicianWarrior]

@@Caleblmao Yep. Considering how slim and lightweight it is I'd say it's a great buy.

[@m3rc743]

@@SteveBlancoMusicianWarrior Hey, how's the piano so far? is the action still quiet compared to when first bought?

[@SteveBlancoMusicianWarrior]

@@m3rc743 The piano is great. The action is still very quiet and I put in hours and hours of practice on it daily. My only zonks for this model to @yamaha is I wish the keys were textured and that the action was a bit heavier.

[@alexgoriatchenkov]

Hello and thank you for nice new keyboards introduction. Hope soon Yamaha will make new top of the line P series model to update 515. I'm not lucky with P125a which brand new coming with multiple keys damaged/different sounds, so now ordered Kawai brand to compare. P.S. And about availability (at least for ordering) in USA, any news ?

[@phungmoe2302]

After all that, never mentioned about AUX in/out if any? 😬

[@HeadlessUkePlayer]

Not biased at all. Tho a complete beginner should start way lower than weighted keys and pure tone. My p145 makes my Casio S1 sound and feel like a toy.

[@t.m9341]

sweetwater has a 143. is 145 new?

[@rationalistssj6540]

if the speakers are in the back, why will it 'sound great' when up against the wall?

[@lifesabeach8133]

Do either of these have a Mic output jack like the PSR E473?

[@ayrtoninchejanampa6874]

Creo que ninguno, lo mejor sería un DGX670 que si tiene

[@vivrbx]

[@angelgracia1]

Very nice review

[@jeronimojunqueira5431]

I was expecting to hear the CFX sound as I hear from clavinola, but I didn’t.

[@RY-fe3rt]

I'll take the 225 if you throw in that rug for free! 😁

[@danisaazizah6286]

can you make a video about the comparison between yamaha p-125a and yamaha p-225?

[@davidfarmer2049]

My understanding is the A insignature means they (yam) took a load of features off it. Also length of keys shortened on the 225 so the action becomes heavier. The yam keyboard too heavy bc shortened keys the roland develops a knock on the keys at 6 months/1 year. So I gather. So i'm stuck too.

[@ayrtoninchejanampa6874]

​@@davidfarmer2049 La letra A solo significa que le quitaron la función de transferencia de audio por usb que si lo tenia el P125 original, lo demás es todo igual. El P225 tiene otro sonido de piano el CFX, además las teclas, en mi opinión se sienten más solidas y son un poco menos ruidosas (lo he probado), el peso también es masomenos idéntico, no es tanta la diferencia

[@homevideos9581]

The piano samples are misleading. The piano may have the samples, but the amplifer/sound processing seems to be dumbed down. The quality of the sound output through the speakers and headphones ( I haven't tried line out yet) sounds low quality to me (Yes I have good active powered headphones that sound perfect on my other digital pianos). The P225 sound is kind of like playing music over an AM radio. Depth, clarity and quality seems to be lacking. But, if you have nothing better to compare this piano to, you probably will be good with it.

[@dragans6792]

What about P 125a?

[@ayrtoninchejanampa6874]

Una versión sin interfaz de audio usb, respecto al P125 normal, todo lo demás es igual

[@michellemonet4358]

What about p515??

[@benjaminsmith2287]

That's overdue fo a successor. Let's go Yamaha and release it already.

[@steroidsR4losers]

DX106??

[@SD-ff1je]

Plug a 145 into cheap studio monitors - incredible. Plug your PC or Apple in and get a trillion instruments. I'm not sure how the 225 fits...

[@folkrock4u]

Not interested in a "comparison" between 2 keyboards of the same brand. Duh- buy the more expensive one if you have the money.
