Topic: Digital Piano with USB audio out support?

Hello,
while searching for my first digital piano, do you know if some of them (or most of them?) have also audio-out profile in their USB connection? I'm asking because I think that it would be helpful to use the speakers of the digital piano for playing the audio created with Pianoteq, without the need to add extra speakers and amplifier to a PC or a table. I have seen that the Yamaha CLP-6xx pianos support it after a firmware update, do you know others, perhaps also less expensive?

Thank you very much.
Sincerely.

Re: Digital Piano with USB audio out support?

I have a Studiologic Numa compact 2 that supports USB audio. I actually use it for Pianoteq. Don't expect much of the internal speakers and piano samples though... They're  quite useless. I bought pianoteq to compensate for the bad internal piano sounds and I don't want anything else anymore.
I use a set of monitors instead of the internal speakers.
