As the newest addition to the Avant Grand lineup, the N1 delivers the captivating sound of this hybrid piano series in its simplest form. The N1 easily does justice to the grand piano in terms of playing feel and responsive action, setting a new standard with its perfect integration of acoustic and digital technologies.

Specialised grand piano action

 The nuanced touch and response of the grand piano are an essential standard yardstick for piano quality. The AvantGrand offers the player a specially-developed grand piano action that features the same configuration as the action of a real grand. The hammers strike the “strings” from underneath, allowing minute adjustments to the weight distribution of the hammers, and to the movement of the hammers themselves, for a smoother feel when playing. In addition to a hammer sensor, the AvantGrand employs a non-contact key sensor that has no effect on the movement of the keys, affording excellent recognition of the player's pressure on the keyboard, timing, and the other delicate nuances that affect musical expression. This combination provides an impressive sensitivity for the entire range from pianissimo through to fortissimo, and the ability to translate even the swiftest trills of the pianist with transparency.

Spatial acoustic sampling and spatial acoustic speaker system

With the introduction of the AvantGrand, Yamaha ignited a revolution in the approach to sampling recording and playback of the notes of the actual acoustic piano. Treating the sound-board not simply as a point source of sound but as a plane, they took samples at four positions, adding optimum center and rear locations to the traditional left and right. As a sound source, they carefully selected the best single instrument from among the CFIIIS full concert grand pianos for sampling. The end result of these efforts is that AvantGrand series instruments recreate the original sound of a superb grand piano almost to perfection. Meanwhile, the AvantGrand’s speaker system has been designed to ensure that this sound is heard best at the playing position. A three-way system featuring woofer, mid-range and tweeter speakers reproduce the rich natural resonance of the soundboard accurately. What’s more, each of the low-, mid-, and high-frequency bands has been given its own amplifier to prevent interference between bands. This innovative configuration allows the instrument’s outstanding sound system to reproduce the nuances of each individual note. For even greater sonic accuracy, feature speaker layouts optimized for the size of the instruments.

Delivering your new piano

How are you going to get your new instrument home? Digital pianos are supplied to us flat-packed in boxes and we offer a number of options for you:

Collect from our loading bay

Our Newcastle store has a vehicle loading bay outside. At the checkout, simply select ‘in-store collection’ and we will contact you with directions to the collection point.

A note on box sizes: All digital piano collections will require the back seats of a car to be folded down. Portable stage pianos fit relatively easily in most cars. Small cabinet pianos also fit in most cars. Larger digital pianos generally come in one big box that can be up to 100kg. These pianos would only fit in larger cars and small vans. 

Box dropoff

This is our default delivery option. When we deliver boxed items we will use DHL, our own driver, or occasionally a specialist piano mover (Griffin Transport UK).

If you choose this option for delivery, please be aware that this is a ground floor delivery service only and where possible the box will be delivered inside the ground floor of the house. If there are stairs up to the front door, or if you live in a flat, it is at the delivery driver’s discretion as to whether they can help bring the box inside the front door. Ultimately, the responsibility lies with the customer in this instance to bring the piano into the address. If you want to house the piano in an upstairs room, the driver will not carry the box upstairs for you, the responsibility for moving the piano inside the house remains with the customer.

Boxed digital pianos can range in weight from 12kg to over 100kg. There are some models of piano that are either too bulky or too heavy to delivery via a drop off service. Delivery options for these pianos are restricted to a specialist installation to ensure the safe arrival of the item.

If you have any questions about our box drop off service or would like any advice regarding how best to deliver your piano please give us a call on 0191 2602915.

Premium delivery and installation

If you are buying a ‘cabinet style’ piano rather than a ‘portable’ instrument many customers feel that the best option is specialist installation. We use the services of Griffin Transport UK. This is a specialist piano removal company that we have worked with for many years, we hear nothing but great reports about the service they provide. Once you have selected your piano, we will forward your contact details to Griffin UK who will then contact you directly to arrange a mutually convenient delivery slot. They will unbox and assemble your new instrument and dispose of all packaging materials. This will give you the peace of mind that your precious instrument is handled with care and assembled correctly; the mountain of cardboard and polystyrene will also be taken care of!

Local piano deliveries are usually completed within 7 – 10 days and piano deliveries elsewhere in the UK usually within 2 – 3 weeks.
