The list of unique features in a Blak series Kawai is quite extensive and impressive.
The Kawai Pianos in the Blak series are a limited production of superbly crafted pianos considered to be the most technologically advanced.
The word kuro(blak) in the Japanese language suggests wisdom, experience, and nobility.
Kawai’s Blak series embodies over 8 decades of accumulated knowledge and experience in crafting the world’s finest pianos.
Kawai’s legendary Millenium III Carbon Fiber action is called the Ninja action.
The M-3 Ninja action was named after an ancient warrior whose actions are swift, precise, and powerful.
The spruce keys on the RX Series Black are designed with extended length to make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface.
One of the most coveted attributes of a fine piano is dynamic range—the ability to play not only thundering fortissimos but also the most delicate and sensitive pianissimos.
The technological superiority of the Millennium III Action is most evident in its extraordinary ability to produce the perfect pianissimo.
Ironically, RX Series Blak technology speaks loudest when it whispers.
The world’s most precise piano action, the M3 Ninja Action features ABS-Carbon technology and premium BLAK Sen-Yo hammers.
The premium Sen-Yo hammers produce vivid clarity, warmth, and an unsurpassed dynamic range.
Shigeru Kawai, GX, RX, and EX concert grand pianos also use Sen-Yo hammers.
Sen-Yo hammers are specifically designed for the North American market to deliver an exceptional, rich, and inviting tone.
Mahogany is a preferred material for crafting the highest-quality hammers because of its light weight and excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
Mahogany hammers produce a lighter, faster keystroke and release from the strings more quickly,
leaving more energy in the strings for increased tone production.
RX BLAK Series grand pianos feature mahogany hammer moldings for improved sound and resonance.
NEOTEX key surface material made with cellulose fiber offers the smooth, understated texture of natural ivory and ebony.
Its semi-porous, silica-filled surface absorbs the hand’s natural oils and perspiration, which can cause slipping.
NEOTEX resists cracking and fading over years of use and is used for both the sharps and the naturals for a consistent feel across the entire keyboard.
Each Soundboard is carefully aged and selected spruce for the North American Climate.
This RX2 Blak was purchased new from Avery and meticulously maintained by the original owner.
