Which style of digital piano stand is best?

Hi, just want to know from people who own / play digital piano, which stand is better: T, X or Z stands?

T stand


X stand

I contacted a seller and he said X is most stable which allows easy portability. The T stands are good for "fixing" the DP at home. I've only played on T stand DP before. Just want if you play ff (fortissimo) on it, does it feel like it's going to collapse?

Thanks for sharing!

I don't know where to post this...

On which stand do you mean will it collapse?

From experience I prefer the T stand. The ones I've played on have been built in to the piano though. I haven't played such a large keyboard on the X stand, but did find they could wobble a bit...

Definitely the T stand. Both the X and Z stands are wobbly. If you're serious about playing "piano" (as opposed to "keyboard") ... it needs to be an all-in-one solution with the digital piano attached to the T stand. Nothing less.

Do you already have a digital piano or are you looking into buying one? I'm happy to offer some advice (I teach piano all day, every day ... it's my job.)

@greenshake: that's great! That's what I expected from X and Z. Just want to know others' experience. I'm looking into buying one. What brand would you recommend? I read that Casio and Korg is a good value buy but I've seen some "no brand" like Orly (from Italy) and Hemingway (German) on ebay for very affordable price. What would you recommend to look for? I know it all depends on price and I'm going for low budget

zimmer, if like me your main interest is classical piano, I would recommend that you try as many instruments as possible, within your budget. For me the main consideration in choosing my DP was the 'realism' of the keyboard action; sound was a close second. You can always change the piano sound with add-on software, but you're stuck with the keyboard. I eventually bought a Kawai CA 91 which, good though it is, plays a strictly supporting role to my Thürmer grand.

This is my recommendation from another thread.

Thanks for the replies.

Just got another reply from a DP seller who said that Korg DPs are made for 100 V to 240 V. The Orly DP (which I also enquired about) works with separate "netzteil" (cables) made for 220V or for 110V i.e. I can use the DP in Germany with the 220V netzteil and 110V netzteil when the DP is in US. Thought I'd share this in case anyone is thinking about moving back to US with the DP purchased here.
