 If the recessed screws underneath the back are loose September 22, 2008

I have played the Casio PX-320 for a couple weeks and am a beginner/intermediate piano player. The PX-320 keys have texture and shape and pressure and volume range and return speed that invites making music. The PX-320 is scaled (graded) so that treble notes are easier and quicker versus bass notes are harder and slower. The keys are weighted and have a simulated hammer action. For my taste the keyboard is a joy to play and is close to an acoustic piano.
I think the Yamaha YPG-635 and Yamaha P85 have at least as good touch and piano sound. I liked the Yamaha YPG-635 display and controls and features and sounds. The YPG-635 is too wide to lay flat in my car while the PX-320 lays on my back seat or back floorboard. The PX-320 base is flat and as large as the top, unlike the P85 that has a base smaller than the top. The P85 has 10 voices. The PX-320 weighs 26 lbs (12kg).
The PX-320 has 11 one-touch sounds like grand piano, electric piano, organ, strings and synth-voice. The PX-320 has 60 wide ranging Casio voices. The PX-320 has 128 General MIDI (GM) voices and 2 Drum Sets. I am pleased with the variety and quality of the voices. I like the large 3-character display and miss a numeric keypad and graphic display. The speakers are fine for a bedroom or living room. If the recessed screws underneath the back are loose the speakers can cause plenty of subtle or annoying noise.
I like the Casio PX-320 price, car fit, finger action, voices, 5 song recording or playback with as little as 2 key pushes, and usable speakers. I look forward to exploring 2-track recording, quick registration, 70 play-along rhythms, and flash memory slot. The Casio PX-320 is enjoyable to play and delightful to hear and easy to learn.

The Casio PX-320 is the best keyboard out there under $700, bar none. I have demo'd them all, I mean all of them. The PX-320 has the best grand piano sound period, and the Rhodes EP is excellent as well. I know, you think of Casio as a major player amongst the Rolands and Yamaha's and most snicker. STOP! The engineers at Casio really put their soul into this one. Another VERY important feature here is keyboard action. No thunk here! Keyboard action is far superior to the Yamaha CP-33 and even the Motifs. Again, the grand piano sound is excellent. My HighSierraBassPlayer top choices for Digital Piano under $1000 is indeed the Casio PX-320. It's light, the piano sounds are perfect for jazz, classical, rock, and yes, my fave, the blues! Over $1000, definitely get the Roland RD-300GX. That, friends, is the best digital keyboard today.

I bought this keyboard about 2 months ago and I have really enjoyed it so far. The piano tones sound great and about a thrid of the other tones are very usable. The others sound decent too, I just have no use for them. The action seemed a little heavy (slower) at first but I have gotten use to it now and it doesn't affect my playing at all. As some other reviewers mentioned, it is kind of a pain to scroll through the tones becasue you have to hold a button on the right side of the keyboard and hit 'yes' or 'no' to scroll up or down through the tones on the left side. But as they also said, the memory registers allows you to store the tones you like for very simple access. I spent a couple of days listening to each sound and storing them as I like and now I get get any sound I need with about 3 button presses. Overall I think this is a great product for this price, the only issues that I have run into so far is this: First, some of the lower bass notes become muddled if you play in the lowest 2 octives. Sometimes it's not so bad but it can be depending on the song. Second, the included pedal is ok but not great. But this can easily be solved by just buying a better pedal. Both of these issues are probably related to the price range but the pros outway the cons by far regarding this. I have not been playing piano very long but I have had people play this keyboard that have been playing for years and they had no complaints. I would definitely suggest this product to anyone intereted in a keyboard in the $700 range, although I think Casio just released PX-330 which has a pitch bend wheel, more tones, and a different sound source - none of which really mattered to me. But maybe that just means that you can get this great keyboard even cheaper.

Purchased this item for my 20 year old son. Has been playing it for 3 weeks. The sound is good and he says it is better with headphones. He uses many of the extensive number of features. This piano is full size and heavy so it needs a sturdy stand.
Very pleased.
A lot of didgital piano for the price and more September 6, 2008

For the price paid, the Casio Privia PX-320 delivers much more than the products from competitors. See the description.
The multiple voices provided sound ok through the speakers, but they sound better through a decent pair of headphones.
I bought mine to replace a Yamaha P-120, that was too heavy to carry around.
I consider the action of the Casio to be very close of the Yamaha's in terms of quality - even if they feel different.
Out of the box I would say that the Casio action feels lighter and more dynamic - it is not good or bad, as it is a question of taste.
I have no issue going back to my Yamaha C3 grand piano after I practiced on the Casio. That is what matters to me.
The PX comes with a lot of additional voices that are actually, for many but not all, quite usable. The piano allows to layer 2 voices and to set the volume of each of them. You can even add a 3rd voice if split the keyboard. 128 polyphony allows to play without the PX-320 to drop notes, even during sustained phrases.
A the PX-320 offer a lot of settings, check out the doc (online on the Casio website) to feel your confort with its interface.
It takes some time to get what you want but you can store your settings in the 96 registration slots for instant setting retrieval. A must that lacks the PX-200.
In addition the drum sets are dynamic (sound soft or loud depending on your strike speed) and that allows very decent drum play and midi edition.
Over all a great DP that delivers way more - it would even be a perfect Midi studio controller if it would come with the usual modulation and pitch bend wheels.
Time for me to get back to it and play my preferred classical pieces. BTW, it comes with the 60 classical pieces score book that the PX-320 has in memory. Very nice.
