Key Features

  • Is this a real grand piano action? Yes—the same hammers, keys, and mechanics as Yamaha's acoustic grands. Real wood keys with Ivorite surfaces for authentic touch and grip.
  • Will it capture my playing dynamics accurately? Non-contact optical sensors track every nuance without affecting key feel. From whisper-soft pianissimo to thunderous fortissimo, with infinite expression in between.
  • How realistic is the piano sound? 4-point Spatial Acoustic Sampling captures each note from four positions on a real concert grand. You hear the same dimensional sound as if sitting at a 9-foot Yamaha CFX.
  • Does it sound like a real grand piano in the room? Four-channel speaker system with dedicated amps mimics how sound naturally radiates from a grand. Low notes rumble from the left, highs sparkle from the right—just like the real thing.
  • Can I feel the piano vibrate when I play? Tactile Response System (TRS) recreates the physical vibrations you'd feel in an acoustic grand. Adjustable or turn it off—your choice.
  • Will headphones sound realistic for late-night practice? Intelligent Acoustic Control maintains tonal balance at any volume. Even quiet playing through headphones sounds rich and clear, never thin or artificial.
  • Does it capture the resonance of an acoustic piano? Soundboard Resonator physically vibrates with your playing, recreating the complex sympathetic resonances of a real piano soundboard.
  • Can it handle complex music without cutting off notes? 256-note polyphony means you'll never experience note drop-outs, even in the most demanding passages with pedal-sustained chords.
  • How do I record and share my performances? Built-in USB recording to MIDI or audio WAV. Connect to computers, external drives, or stream wirelessly via Bluetooth. Multiple audio outputs for performances or recording studios.
  • Is the keyboard lid safe? Soft-close fallboard prevents slamming, protecting both the instrument and your fingers. Elegant engineering that works silently every time.

Yamaha N2 AvantGrand - Real Grand Piano Action, Zero Grand Piano Maintenance

Watch: The Hybrid Piano That Feels Like a Real Grand (Without the Grand Piano Problems)

A person's hands playing a grand piano with the interior mechanism exposed, showcasing the hammers and strings.

Authentic Acoustic Touch, Zero Maintenance

Real Grand Piano Action Without the Grand Piano Hassles

This isn't a simulation—these are real grand piano hammers and keys. The same mechanical action found in Yamaha's finest acoustic grands, giving you the exact weight, resistance, and response you'd feel at Carnegie Hall. Build proper technique from day one because you're learning on the real thing. The only difference? No tuning appointments, no humidity worries, no regulation fees. Just authentic grand piano touch, ready when you are.

Infinite Expression, Zero Compromise

Every Subtle Nuance Captured Perfectly

Invisible optical sensors read every microscopic movement of each key—how fast you press, how deep you go, how quickly you release. The gentlest pianissimo whisper or the most thunderous fortissimo chord, captured with perfect accuracy. Unlike traditional sensors that add mechanical resistance, these stay completely out of your way. You get unlimited dynamic range and total freedom of expression, exactly as the composer intended.

Four-Dimensional Piano Sound

Sound That Surrounds You Like a Real Grand Piano

Close your eyes and you'd swear there's a real grand piano in front of you. Four precisely positioned speakers recreate how sound naturally radiates from a grand piano—low notes rumbling from the left, high notes shimmering from the right, everything blending in the middle. The soundboard resonator actually vibrates like a real piano's wooden soundboard, adding warmth and depth. Stand up, walk around—the sound changes just like it would with an acoustic piano. This is immersive, three-dimensional piano sound.

The Missing Piece: Physical Connection

Feel Every Vibration Like You're Inside the Piano

When you play an acoustic grand, you don't just hear it—you feel it. The cabinet vibrates beneath your fingertips, the bench hums with each bass note, your entire body becomes part of the instrument. The Tactile Response System recreates these physical vibrations through the keys and cabinet. Meanwhile, Virtual Resonance Modeling calculates how all 88 strings interact and resonate with each other in real-time, just like they do inside a real piano. It's the final piece that makes this instrument feel alive instead of electronic.

Concert Hall Sound, Bedroom Volume

Practice at 3 AM Without Waking Anyone

Your neighbors are asleep. Your family's in bed. But inspiration just hit and your fingers need to move. Plug in headphones and play as loud as you want—the outside world stays silent. The binaural sampling puts you right at the piano bench of a Yamaha CFX or Bösendorfer Imperial, with sound that wraps around your head naturally. Unlike most headphone modes that sound flat and artificial, this actually makes you want to practice with headphones. Early morning sessions before work, late night after everyone's asleep—your practice schedule is finally under your control.

Save $300/Year in Tuning Costs

Always in Perfect Tune—No Technician Required

Acoustic piano owners know the drill: tune twice a year minimum, more if your humidity fluctuates. That's $150-200 each time, plus the hassle of scheduling and waiting around. With the AvantGrand, that era is over. Perfect A440 pitch every single time you sit down, whether it's summer humidity or winter dryness. The hammers and action are real, but the sound generation is digital—which means perfect tuning, forever. No regulation, no voicing, no seasonal drift. Just sit down and play, knowing it'll sound exactly as it should.

Practice with Spotify, YouTube, or Your Own Tracks

Connect Your Entire Music Library Wirelessly

Stream audio wirelessly via Bluetooth from your phone, tablet, or computer through the piano's premium speaker system. Play along with your favorite recordings, slow down YouTube tutorials to practice difficult passages, or use the piano as your home audio system when you're not playing. Built-in USB audio recording captures your performances in studio quality—no interface, no cables, no hassle. Perfect for tracking progress, sharing with your teacher, or creating content. Modern convenience meets traditional craftsmanship.
