Casio LK-215

The keyboard is easy to use. It looks like an electronics shop toy for kids. All the songs and sounds that it has are written on the face of the keyboard.

The keyboard looks easy to use, but has terrible speakers that hinder the sound.

Could have been a real market seller if it had decent speakers.

Touch sensitivity, lighted keyboard, USB connection, SD Card slot (up to 1GB), approx. 250 sounds and 120 rythyms.

DO NOT BUY THIS KEYBOARD.
The sound quality is woefull. The sound chip may be okay, but the speakers on this keyboard are really bad. I wondered why you would get a 61 key, touch sensitive lighted keyboard with USB and SD Card slot for under $300 Australian.

There had to be a catch. You guessed it - it was the sound eminating from this keyboard. Casio must have built this keyboard for the very budget concsious. They used the lowest quality speakers they have in their arsenal.

The sound is muted and somewhat muffled like it would be through a really bad set of crappy, cheap speakers. Even at maximum volume, the sound seems quiet and distorted. You would have to plug it through an amplifier to get any sort of acceptable sounds.

Casio offers a 5 year warranty on this item, as it does with most of their other keyboards.

Never dealt with them.

Features are great!
61 keys, touch sensitivity, heaps of sounds and rythyms, USB, lighted keyboard, and SD Card slot.

BUT, the sound is terrible. Why does Casio go to the lengths of creating a feature loaded keyboard and then deliver it with sub-par speakers that are shocking. Why not spend a few extra dollars and use decent speakers.

Spend another $80-$100 and get the LK-300TV keyboard. It has a 2-way bass reflex speaker sytem that sounds great with loads more sounds and a TV connection capability.

I took this keyboard back and swapped it for a Yamaha PSR-E413, which is superb.
