Looking for a hammer action digital piano, either new or used is find, anyone?

[Karo]

Hey, guys, I am a beginner to play piano, but since I am looking for a keyboard that has notes with equivalent weight as a real piano, could anyone give me some suggestion to what should I buy?

Wanna find something around 5oo to 7oo dollars, althought I am a newie, i will still looking for a nice one to use for a loong time.
Ps: I've been looking at the Casio CDP220, would it be a good option if I am looking for something having notes nearly as heavy as a real piano note does?
Also, dun mind to get a used one at this stage i m in Adelaide, Australia lol

I was going to recommend the Casio Privia PX-3 but it looks like they really ream you guys on price down under.

Here in Canada it's being discontinued and is on sale for $499 CDN.

In the US it sells around the $500-$600 mark.

All I can find in Australia sells for about $1300 AUD!!!

With those kinds of numbers I'd advise trying to get an Australian dealer to price match or else just order one from North America and eat the shipping charges and taxes.

May need to road test the Yamaha Piaggero series - not sure what the key action is like tho....

Hi all,

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/PIANO-DI...nstruments&hash=item1c269a26c8#ht_1211wt_1159

i was wondering with the PX3, it says it doesnt have internal speakers, does that mean you need to get additional speakers to plug in to the keyboard? or only use headsets? thanks for any info

You have to use it with either a Keyboard Amp or a set of Powered Studio Monitors or a professional PA system or you could use headphones.
