I dont know what it is about Yamaha but they've recently gone down hill. THey really need to sort their sound out.

It's all a matter of taste. Someone likes light pianos, while someone doesn't. Saying that Kawai pianos suck is just dumb because they obviously don't. A Steinway piano that has a better sound than a Kawai grand piano can cost up to three times more money so try keeping that in mind.

Also, the most popular piano producer of all, Yamaha, has one of the lightest actions in the piano industry. Bosendofer is much worse than Kawai and Steinway. That company is owned by Yamaha.

@ImageWizardMedia Bosendorfer is incorrect , yet I do agree with all the other things you said! No hard feelings, mate! Cheers - From one piano lover to the next

@ImageWizardMedia I agree with your statement up until you say Bosendorfer is much worse? Bosendorfer pianos are hand made and shipped across the Atlantic. Everything the music desk to the hammer are hand made, which in turn makes every single Bosendorfer piano sound different, and when you buy a piano that is made in such a fashion it takes years of tuning and perfecting until you reach the ideal pitch/tone/sound t is desired. That being said, your statement about

@k250014783 Not until loudspeaker technology catches up to the computer. Who wants to hear a flawless recording of a piano over the real thing?

Steinway nazis always have a way to explain why steinways sound 'better'. There just like those idiots that say Ibanez guitars don't sound as good as gibson. Well, tell that to me, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, John Petrucci, Marty Friedman, Paul Gilbert etc.

@stephenishki Ahh but al Steinway pianos are truly different. Some have stiff actions some are light. I myself prefer the action of a stiff piano because I am an organist and I have quite strong fingers. but let's all remember that ALL leading grand pianos are fantastic to play on.

@1001dlee Eventually a computer will be able to simulate your "strings and carefully maintained wood" with such accuracy even you won't be able to tell the difference. It is only a matter of time. Don't get me wrong; a real grand piano is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship, but so is a synthesizer program.

@k250014783 What digital piano has strings and is made from carefully maintained wood? Nothing beats the real thing.

@1001dlee How?
