The P-85 with stand and 3 pedals should be about €769 (http://www.musik-schmidt.de/gb-Yamaha-P-85-S-DESIGN-KOMPLETT-SET-.html). And yes, European prices for digital pianos and synths are a total rip-off!

UK based shop http://www.dv247.com

P85 with pedals and stand 670 EUR (593 pounds)

F-110 995 eur.

There will be additional delivery costs to Neederlands though, but still a reasonable option.

And yes those DPs are rip-off priced here in the United States of Europe. Strong euro should mean that imported stuff should be cheaper, but we have all these imaginary taxes to compensate for that.

And while you are in the store you might as well try out the action of Casio PX-X30 series or Korg SP 250.

Casio Privia PX-130 + VST = quite close to the real thing.

Hi,

I'm new to these forums and figure I'll throw my 2cents in. I too am on the quest for a 1K (euro) digital piano smile.

Went into the store today and tried the Roland RP 101 (which im told has the same keys as the F110). I then compared this to a Yamaha CLP 320 and I was simply blown away by the difference. In my opinion the Yamaha sound is so much clearer and more like an acoustic piano.. I can find a Yamaha CLP 320 in Holland online for 1.100 euro.

Anyway there I was loving the design of the F110 and now I have fallen hard for the Yamaha sound. If only they had a black version that isnt 300 euro more expensive!!

I can only repeat Snazzy's advice that you see on a lot of these topics. Try before you buy. Try try try, and come share it here! smile

Regards and thanks for these awesome forums!

Thank you for your comment.

Were you blown away only by the sound or also the keyboard action?
And did you test the sound with headphones?

I will try both before I buy something.
The F110 looks so nice, but if the sound is worser then the P-85, I will go for the P-85.

Or maybe the S31 Arius :p

By the way, the RP 101 is older then the F-110, maybe the sound has improved..

Both sound and keyboard action felt better to me. More real would be the right description.

Thanks for that info on the rp 101. I still havent gotten my hands on an F110. Lets hope its sounds better. let us know!

Groetjes
