Plugging in headphones (even with my cheap ones) and using the CFX/Bosendorfer binaural samples sounds better than any combination I mentioned above. The 16cm speaker is right on the back of the speaker box facing the wall. I have it a couple feet away form the wall and it sounds a lot better. It was like that at the dealers when I originally tried it and it sounded very muddy. You definitely don't want the N1X pressed up against the wall if you're using the onboard speakers. I think the external monitors can enhance the sound provided they are balanced properly with the onboard system.ģ. However, it's difficult to get the right balance only having one control for both speakers systems. Combining the external monitors with the N1X speakers brings out a bit more bass, clarity and brightness to the sound. This tactile, organic feel, adds a significant realism to the experience (IMO).Ģ. The onboard speakers make the N1X vibrate while playing it thus making me feel more connected to the instrument like an acoustic piano. The onboard speaker system sounds and performs well.

I can be happy running my VST's through the onboard speakers of the N1X. Here are a couple first impressions regarding the speakers:ġ. That makes it hard if you're trying to blend the internal/external speakers for a more nuanced sound. Unfortunately, both the internal speakers and line out volume are controlled by the same dial.

The only disadvantage in the N1X is not being able to separately control the Line Out volume. The N1X audio interface gives me plenty of options and it works great so far. The splitter allows me the option to play audio/music through my computer without having the piano on, or I can run sound through just the N1X internal speakers, or both the N1X speakers and the monitors at the same time if I want.

The splitter L/R output goes to my KRK monitors.

I also have the L/R output of the N1X going to a passive splitter along with my Mac mini output. So I can use the N1X to control midi, play music through the onboard speakers or record in a DAW. I have the N1X running to my computer via USB. I really appreciate the audio interface on the N1X. Yes, I was wondering what the KRKs are for. I recorded directly onto a thumb drive without changing any of the factory settings. I've chosen the Bosendorfer Imperial because I think it sounds the best of the 5 internal sounds. I was so tempted to use my VSL Steinway for the sound, but in the spirit of the N1X thread, I'll use an internal sound. I'll play it through as written and then arranged. Here is a song I recorded from the Duane Shinn 52 week crash course (Lesson 34). Thankfully everything seems to be working fine based on my limited evaluation. It has my Mac mimi, monitor switcher, and 2i4 in it. I stained it ebony with a high gloss poly finish. I made this little black box to be my computer/cable management box. I tried to dress up my basement a little bit with a new rung and different color sheets on the walls. I suspect you can be rather rough with the handling and still not hurt it. I should have taken some pics of the unboxing because it is very well packaged. I'm incredibly impressed by the way it was packaged. It's manageable with a dolly and two weaker people. If you're going to move these boxes around on your own you need a dolly or two strong people. Moving men helped me load it in the truck. I was a little surprised when I saw the boxes upright at the dealers.
