Kawai HM4 ES8 Designer Stand

Product Overview

The HM4 stand for the Kawai ES8 is an eye-catching, custom-built designer stand that provides a more traditional piano look for home settings as compared to the industrial flavored ‘X’ or ‘Z’ keyboard stands. This stand offers sturdy support for your ES8 (sold separately, only compatible with Kawai ES8)

Traditional Style

A common complaint from folks when considering an ‘X’ stand or ‘Z’ sand for their slab-type digital piano is the look; some people much prefer the look of a traditional piano in their home as opposed to something that just looks like a keyboard. The Kawai HM4 wooden designer stand makes the ES8 look more like a real piano, as opposed to a keyboard.

Stability

If stability is a prime concern, you can rest assured the HM4 has you covered. With a wide base and solid construction, the HM4 will not easily knock over, nor will it bounce around when played by even heavy-handed players.

Required for use of Kawai F301 Triple Pedal Unit

If the Kawai F301 Triple Pedal Unit is something you want to add to your ES8, it’s important to know that the triple pedal unit requires the HML4 to function. While you can buy the HML4 and don’t necessarily need to add the F301, the reverse isn’t true. The addition of the triple pedal makes playing advanced classical music a possibility on the ES8.

Expert Advice

If you’ve decided on the ES8 and it’s not something you’ll be frequently taking on the go (but still have the option to regardless), why not go for the much more aesthetically pleasing stand built by Kawai?

A digital piano is something that will likely be in your home for quite some time, so it’s not hard to argue the merits of spending a bit more money on something that will make the piano and in turn your whole room, a little bit nicer to look at.
