Yamaha P95B or Korg SP 170 or Korg SP250 Digital Piano

Yamaha P95B vs Korg SP 170 vs Korg SP250 Digital Piano...

Hi,

I have been reviewing Yamaha P95B, Korg 170 and Korg SP 250 pianos. I am planning to buy a piano keyboard for both my son and myself and we are beginners. I cannot afford to buy an acoustic piano since it is expensive.

I have been looking at these and I am very tempted to buy the Yamaha P95B piano but I like the hammer action in the Korg sp 250 more and it is closer to an acoustic piano.

I would like to know which of the three is the best and bang for buck?

Is Yamaha p95b equally good as korg sp-250?

Please advise...

    I would personally go with the Yamaha, but then I am favored towards the Yamaha because I have used several of their keyboard instruments before. But if you are a serious piano player and a fan of Yamaha then I would suggest you go for the Yamaha p-155. It is a far better piano in terms of sound and feel compared to the p-95, but then you pay a few hundred dollars more for it.

    Regarding the pianos mentioned here, I think it’s more of a match between the Yamaha p95 and the korg sp-250. Both are good pianos and if you have used any of the brands before you may be more in favor of that brand. Look-wise as someone pointed out, Yamaha looks a bit better than the Korg. But then that is true of most korg keyboard instruments, especially there arrangers which really look lousy but are one of the best in business.

    The Yamaha P95 is a popular digital piano, especially for beginning students. I think its comparable with the SP170 which is also a great value entry level digital piano.

    But the korg sp250 has a much better key touch, responds like a much expensive piano. I think the only thing it lacks is an impressive look.

    The Yamaha P95B is an improved version in terms of sound and touch in comparison to the earlier Yamaha p85 piano.

    About Korg sp250, I personally feel it's an okay piano. Compared to the sp170, it doesn't offer a lot more but is about 200 euros more.
