Introducing the Yamaha C6X grand piano

The C6X is 6'11'', often thought to be the perfect size for a grand piano and the same size as the Steinway B. The instrument is small enough for the perfect domestic performance piano and large enough create the sort of sound to fill a smaller concert venue. The C6 has always been an incredibly popular piano here at Chamberlain Music, whether a C6L, a C6M or a C6X, and over the years we have sold numerous examples to venues, teachers, enthusiastic amateurs and conservatoires alike. With the revolutionary advanced design the C6X is capable of the subtlest nuances yet can really sing with the sort of clarity that is extremely hard to find. A wonderful grand piano and highly recommended.

Soundboard

Resonating with the emotions of the performer As with the CF Series, the CX Series utilizes unique crown manufacturing techniques resulting in dramatically improved projection and the unprecedented response that performers demand.

Revolutionary new music wire

The CX Series utilizes music wire that produces a rich sound with a full complexity of overtones in its middle and upper registers offering beautiful sustain and harmony. Coupled with the support from a solid foundation, this gives CX Series pianos a rich, harmonic sound.

Hammers based on those of the CFX Series

Yamaha, unlike most other piano manufacturers, produces most of its own high-quality components and the hammers used in the CX Series utilize the same felt as the CFX, giving these pianos bright tonal colours and finely nuanced sound.

Back posts

The part of the piano that accepts this force and transforms it into deep reverberation is called the back frame, which could be likened to the skeleton in a human body. CX Series pianos feature a thickened back frame for improved support, providing a rich, resonant tone.

Lid Prop Safety Stop

The CX Series is equipped with a lid prop stopper to prevent your fingers from being caught when the piano lid closes unexpectedly.

Soft-Close Fallboard

The fallboard is fitted with a soft-landing mechanism that means you no longer have to worry about the fallboard shutting on your fingers unexpectedly.

C6X Review Having taken delivery of my new C6X Yamaha grand piano in November 2012, I have been very impressed with the overall quality of this instrument. Having moved up from a Yamaha C3M the improvement to the C6X is tangible. Obviously with the C6X being a larger piano, the increase in resonance is to be expected but the improvement is in my opinion significant, given the moderate increase in size from a 6 foot 1 inch piano to a 6 foot 11 inch piano. Prior to playing on a Yamaha I had played both on a Steinway and a Bluthner and in comparison the C6X is much easier on the fingers, the action being closer to the Bluthner and softer than the Steinway. This lightness of action makes it much easier to move up and down the keyboard with a degree of fluidity that does not feel forced. Additionally I find that this allows me to play pieces much more expressively. Having young children this softness in the action makes playing the instrument much easier for smaller hands, which makes it an ideal instrument to learn on. All the useful features are there, like the soft-fall fallboard, essential again for those with young children. Yamaha have also made the instrument look less fussy which to my eye makes the instrument look more classical although this is my personal preference. I must say a word of thanks to Dominic Barnett of Chamberlain music. He sourced instrument shortly after it was released and oversaw the delivery and post delivery service excellently. It was a big decision to spend a significant amount of money on a piano for the home and I found Dominic and Chamberlain music approachable and extremely helpful whilst at the same time being very professional. If you are in the market for a grand piano I cannot recommend the Yamaha C6X highly enough. It is a beautiful instrument with an exceptional action and resonance. Mr Mushtaque A.
