The Roland LX705 is an exceptional digital piano from Roland's prestigious LX700 series, offering the expressive touch, rich sound and elegant appearance of a traditional acoustic piano.
Designed for pianists who appreciate a realistic playing experience, the LX705 combines Roland's advanced PureAcoustic Piano Modelling technology with the superb PHA-50 hybrid keyboard and a powerful four-speaker sound system.
A beautifully designed, premium instrument suitable for everyone from developing students to accomplished pianists.
PHA-50 Hybrid Keyboard – Exceptional Piano Touch
One of the standout features of the LX705 is Roland's acclaimed PHA-50 keyboard, featuring a hybrid construction combining genuine wooden sides with durable modern materials.
The keyboard offers a wonderfully natural and responsive playing experience, including:
-
88 fully weighted, individually responsive keys
-
Hybrid wood and moulded construction
-
Escapement mechanism for realistic grand piano touch
-
Ebony and ivory-feel key surfaces
-
Excellent dynamic response, from delicate pianissimo to powerful fortissimo
-
Adjustable touch sensitivity to suit individual playing preferences
Whether practising classical repertoire or playing contemporary music, the LX705 offers the control and expression expected from a high-quality acoustic instrument.
PureAcoustic Piano Modelling – Remarkably Realistic Sound
Unlike conventional digital pianos that rely primarily on recordings of acoustic instruments, the LX705 uses Roland's advanced PureAcoustic Piano Modelling technology.
This sophisticated system recreates the complex interactions of strings, hammers, soundboard and cabinet resonance, producing a rich, natural and highly expressive piano sound.
Two distinct grand piano characters are available:
-
European Grand: Rich, warm and expressive, particularly suited to classical music.
-
American Grand: Clear, powerful and dynamic, ideal for a wide range of musical styles.
The piano responds naturally to every subtle variation in touch, offering an exceptionally rewarding playing experience.
Powerful Four-Speaker Acoustic Projection System
The LX705 features Roland's sophisticated Acoustic Projection technology, with four carefully positioned speakers designed to recreate the depth and spatial character of an acoustic grand piano.
With a total rated amplification of 60 watts, the sound is beautifully balanced, from the rich bass notes through to the delicate upper register.
Unlike many digital pianos, the LX705 produces sound that feels spacious and natural rather than simply coming from a pair of conventional speakers.
Bluetooth Connectivity and Modern Features
Despite its traditional appearance, the LX705 includes a wide range of useful modern features:
-
Bluetooth Audio for playing music through the piano's speakers
-
Bluetooth MIDI connectivity for compatible apps
-
Roland Piano Designer for personalising piano characteristics
-
324 instrument sounds, including pianos, strings, organs and more
-
Built-in recording and playback functions
-
USB connectivity
-
Twin Piano mode for teaching and lessons
-
Built-in metronome
-
Dual headphone connections for quiet practice
-
Headphones Acoustic Projection for a natural playing experience
Three Pedals with Progressive Damper Action
The LX705 features three traditional piano pedals, including Roland's Progressive Damper Action technology.
The sustain pedal offers continuous detection, allowing subtle control of sustain and resonance, particularly useful for expressive classical playing.
Elegant Acoustic-Style Cabinet
The LX705 is housed in an attractive, substantial cabinet with the elegant proportions of a traditional upright piano.
Its compact depth makes it suitable for living rooms and music rooms without sacrificing the presence and playing experience of a full-sized instrument.
The sliding keyboard cover keeps the keys protected when not in use.
