Casio Privia PX 160 Digital Piano, White Overview
Learning the piano has never been so accessible! The Casio Privia PX 160 digital piano in white is a lightweight piano which provides a pure playing experience for all players. And thanks to the PX 160 only weighing 11.6kg, it is also incredibly portable, making it perfect for gigging musicians.
With the Casio PX 160, you can now have the sound of a 9-foot concert grand piano at your fingertips. This is all thanks to Casio's proprietary sound source "AiR" (Acoustic and intelligent Resonator). The sound source delivers the sounds with remarkable expression to ensure you always have a powerful performance.
Boasting an all-new speaker system, the Casio Privia PX 160 can deliver exceptional sounds with outstanding accuracy. This speaker system is open to the front but also ported to the back, which provides excellent audio when the PX-160 is placed against a wall.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionCasio's AiR sound source
Thanks to Casio's Acoustic and Intelligent Resonator (Air) technology, you can experience the unprecedented tone of a grand piano. Now boasting an expanded memory module, the AiR can achieve longer samples than previous models. What does this mean for you? Longer samples decay more naturally without any looping or any other artificial effects.
When you play a grand piano, the sound you hear is not from one single note. Other strings with associated frequencies will resonate as well, adding their sound to provide a uniquely rich resonance. Casio has digitally mastered this response to ensure every performance is expressively unique. All 88 keys will continuously respond to the power behind each stroke. Every nuance of a pianissimo phrase, followed by the intensity of a fortississimo phrase will be replicated with exquisite detail. So whether you're reciting Debussy or Rachmaninoff, you can perform a truly organic experience.
Scaled hammer action
The Casio PX 160 features Casio's Tri-Sensor Scaled Hammer Action II keyboard. Thoughtfully designed to deliver the most natural and authentic playing experience, the PX 160 is meticulously engineered to recreate the weight, touch, and resistance of a grand piano.
The digital piano is made with simulated Ebony and Ivory textured keys, replicating the touch and playability of an acoustic grand piano. And thanks to the all-new tri-sensor system, you can accurately capture the tonal character of your performance with the PX 160. Casio's PX 160 allows you to perform with total depth, character, and strength.

Casio is here to inspire your creativity. With a range of over 100 rhythms, you can explore a variety of styles and genres, with a combination of bass, drums, strings and many more instruments.
