Our flagship headphones, created by taking advantage of the latest technology to redesign our Orthodynamic™ driver that captivated audiophiles in the 1970s. The design is both functional and beautiful, with the lightest weight and most comfortable fit possible, inviting the listener to enjoy a deeply immersive listening experience without discomfort, even during extended use. Produced in the same Japanese factory that handles our flagship models of grand pianos.

A digital piano equipped with LED lights streaming down behind the keys that function as visual indicators of the timing and position of the next keys to play, along with a smart device app that lets you choose instrument sounds, backing accompaniments, and more. The CSP-295 was designed to meet the needs of discerning beginners who demand both form and function by preserving the elegant simplicity of the conventional piano design while also making solo practice more comfortable. With a variety of rich functionality to support your practice, the CSP-295 brings joy to both beginners and those returning to the piano after a long break.
