Millennium III Upright Action
Millennium III Upright Action features components made of ABS-Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fibre into our renowned ABS Styran. ABS-Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, which allows the creation of action parts that are lighter without sacrificing strength. The result is a stronger, faster action that offers more power, better control and greater stability than conventional all-wood actions.
Extended Key Length
Longer keys make playing easier and provide more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface. The benefits to the player are greater control and more power with less effort.
Duplex ladders
The duplex scaling system of the instrument provides harmonics in the mid and high range, thereby adding depth and breadth to the overall tonality.
Staples
The staples ensure precision in string alignment, spacing and angles to produce a more uniform tone and consistent vibratory length of each note.
Tone
Tapered Soundboard made of Solid Spruce
The soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straight-grained, quarter-sawn solid spruce for K Series soundboards. Each soundboard is strategically tapered to maximize its tone producing capability. Only those that meet or exceed our demanding quality standards are selected for use in our professional upright pianos.
SOLID' (Stretcher Over-Lap Integrated Design)
The "SOLID" construction creates an exceptionally rigid foundation to support the string tension. Firstly, the soundboard is mounted onto the frame. Then, the soundboard and the belly rail are integrated into a unique structure firmly anchored to the rim. The extraordinary thickness of the belly rail showcases the structural integrity of this sturdy frame, designed to ensure stable tuning and powerful sound.
