Ok, I just tried it and there is definitely some worth to considering the use of a stereo soundbar. The sound was good but the unit I used had a sub built in that I could not find a way to reduce the sub level, so the bass notes where a bit boomy. T

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will try and see, if it works on my piano. I think, I have read the thing with turning the bridge pin in the book of Ulrich Laible, but I am not exactely sure. In the case of false beats I tune first the right strin

I was in the very same situation last week. I had ~$2500 at most to spend and was deciding between the 430 and 440. The price difference was roughly $700. I decided to go for the 440 after trying both. I really liked the feel of the key tops on the 4

First listing I encountered is on pro music.dk for 14999 DK which translates to a bit over 2000 euro. Ouch ! € 1500 ~ € 1700 was more my expectation. No word about availability. Oh...and http://audioelectric.de for € 2999 euro. I say no more.

One of the reasons I got a cabinet style DP rather than a straight keyboard type was so that it looked better for teaching - and it IS better too because the pedals are fixed in the right position and the frame is solid so you can play fff without it

LoPresti, I don't see why you are being such a douchebag about this whole thing. The OP posted a recording, and asked a question. Is all that trolling/sarcasm really necessary? What you are doing really isn't any better than what zapper did to Da
