🎛 Control Interface & Display
•CVP‑905: 7″ color TFT touchscreen
•CVP‑909: Larger 9″ touchscreen for expanded visibility and interaction
🎹 Keyboard Action & Pedal
•CVP‑905: GrandTouch keyboard with linear-graded hammers; GrandTouch pedals
•CVP‑909: Adds key counterweights and GP Response Damper, closely emulating the feel of a grand piano damper pedal for more nuanced half-pedal control
🎼 Voices and Styles
•CVP‑905: 1,315 preset Voices, 49 Drum/SFX kits, 14 VRM Voices, 227 Super Articulation Voices
•CVP‑909: Expanded to 1,605 Voices, 58 Drum/SFX kits, 17 VRM Voices, and adds Super Articulation 2 (36 voices) plus 301 SA1 voices—enhancing realism of instrument emulation
🔊 Audio & Speakers
•Slight amplifier and speaker configuration differences:
•CVP‑905: Two stereo channels (45 W + 20 W) × 2
•CVP‑909: Additional high‑power 80 W channel in tri-amped configuration for richer tone
In summary, the CVP 909 is more powerful, bigger dynamic range and the touch is slightly more authentic. Good players will pick up on the nuances but it really just comes down to budget. If money isn't an issue, buy the best piano. Otherwise they are both fantastic, high end alternatives to traditional acoustic pianos.
