Who Is This Piano For?

The Yamaha P-225B is ideal for players who want a substantial step up from an entry-level portable digital piano while still keeping the instrument compact and easy to position around the home.

Its GHC weighted keyboard and CFX piano sound make it particularly appealing to progressing students, returning pianists and more experienced players who want a realistic 88-note piano for regular practice. Its portable format also makes it a strong choice for musicians who don't want the size or permanence of a cabinet digital piano.

Why Players Like The P-225

The P-225 combines a convincing weighted piano experience with a remarkably compact design. Yamaha's Graded Hammer Compact keyboard provides the graduated resistance expected from an acoustic piano, with a heavier feel in the lower register becoming progressively lighter towards the upper notes.

The main piano voice is sampled from Yamaha's flagship CFX concert grand, giving the P-225 a rich and expressive character across the keyboard. VRM Lite adds further realism by recreating some of the sympathetic resonances that occur naturally within an acoustic grand piano.

At only 129mm high, 272mm deep and 11.5kg, the P-225 remains easy to accommodate at home or transport when required without sacrificing a full-size 88-note weighted keyboard.

Balanced Piano Sound

The P-225 uses a two-way speaker system with 7W x 2 amplification, designed to deliver clear sound across both the lower and upper registers.

Intelligent Acoustic Control helps balance the sound when playing at lower volumes, while Wall EQ can compensate when the piano is positioned close to a wall. Sound Boost is also available when a stronger, more projecting sound is required.

Bluetooth & Smart Features

Built-in Bluetooth Audio allows you to stream music wirelessly from a compatible smartphone or tablet through the P-225's speakers, making it easy to listen to or play along with your favourite music.

The P-225 is also compatible with Yamaha's Smart Pianist app, giving convenient access to instrument functions and settings from a compatible smart device.

USB-to-Host supports both MIDI and audio, while dedicated AUX outputs make the P-225 suitable for connection to external speakers or amplification. Two headphone sockets are also provided for quiet practice, lessons or shared listening.
