Korg SV-2S 88 Key Stage Vintage Piano with Built-In Speakers

The Korg SV-2S 88 Key Stage Vintage Piano is a professional performance instrument designed to faithfully recreate the sound and feel of classic electro-mechanical and acoustic keyboards. It combines modern digital technology with vintage aesthetics, offering musicians an authentic playing experience with the reliability and convenience of a contemporary stage piano. With its built-in speaker system, it functions as both a standalone instrument and a versatile centrepiece for live performances or studio work. At the heart of the SV-2S is Korg's RH3 (Real Weighted Hammer Action 3) keyboard, featuring 88 full-size, velocity-sensitive keys that provide a realistic weighted response similar to an acoustic piano. The sound engine utilises Enhanced Definition Synthesis - eXpanded (EDS-X) technology, delivering over ten times the sample data of previous SV models. This results in 72 meticulously captured factory sounds, including American and European electric pianos, tonewheel organs, string machines, orchestral sections, and classic synthesizer pads. The instrument offers 128-note polyphony, allowing for complex layering and sustained chords without note dropout. The SV-2S is particularly suited for performing musicians, session players, and home studio enthusiasts who require authentic vintage keyboard sounds in a reliable, portable package. Its intuitive front panel provides immediate access to essential controls, including a valve reactor circuit with a genuine 12AX7 tube for warm amplifier emulation, multiple effects sections, and a three-band equaliser. The built-in K-ARRAY speaker system, comprising two 2.5-inch drivers with passive radiators and 30 watts of amplification, ensures clear, room-filling sound for rehearsals and smaller gigs. Comprehensive connectivity includes balanced XLR outputs, standard audio jacks, MIDI ports, and USB for integration with computer-based recording setups.
