    My sister has just started studying music at university and a keyboard will no longer do, she needs a piano. We havent the space for a piano so it has to be a digital one (her music teacher has no problems with this) ...so has anyone got one or can anyone recommend a good one (~€1,500) and where to buy from?

    Many thanks

    I bought one last year with the same budget. After going to loads of music shops in both cork and dublin and the Roland HP-2 was my favourite.
    This will set you back €2000 in some retailers but I got mine from Germany (http://www.musicians-gear.com/) for €1350. It sounds great, much better than simularly priced pianos I tried out.
    If you have any questions, pm me.

    The selection in Waltons is alright just for trying out. I wouldnt buy one there, but you can get a good idea of how each one sounds...

    yeah, check out the roland rd-170 (i dont work fo roland by the way!) its a stage piano and it sounds fairly nice.
    Check out the prices on www.thomann.de also.

    rd700 is the best of the roland stage pianos (i think anyway). not sure how much it costs. However, I wouldnt say a stage piano is what your after, a fixed digital piano with really good built in speakers is a better bet.
