I wonder if the main problem is the length of the keys; my skills are sufficient to discern that playing on the black notes on a digital is a pain in the arse. . . that goes for most of `em;

So I tried the acoustic actions in the next room. And guess what . . .! It`s down to good old fashioned filthy lucre!

Well, I just got back from setting up my piano and sound system where it will be used tomorrow night and I must say it really sounded excellent.

In this instance if I had to choose between an acoustic and an electric for this specific location I would have still chosen the electric.

This has been said several times in this thread, digital pianos are what they are and sometimes they work better in some situations.

Has the original poster ever returned to this thread?

I believe the original poster is off to "meditate about the impermanence of existence". Perhaps he seeking a better understanding of the "overhyped junk", and "people who buy them". That may take some time based on "the slow pace at which products evolve".

But I could be wrong because when talking about his current piano I think he said it "is well past due for the junkyard". So he may have gone off to take it there, and seeing as he did mention "dusted my Mephisto-Waltz", and the possibility of going to "rent a decent grand", its possible that's where he went.

"Anyways, who are we fooling?", "judging from this forum", just "put up and shut up".

I'd guess the N2 is better in touch and tone than at least 50% of the pianos owned in the U.S. The percent could be much higher than that.
