This kind of reasoning isn't going to help anyone. Anyone who claims that their Kawai sounds better than the comparably sized Steinway is the same guy who would claim that their Honda Accord rides better and outperforms a comparably sized Mercedes or BMW. What is noticeable here is that all the comments coming to you are specific to their personal preferences without really understanding the technical differences between the pianos being discussed. The more information we are "armed" with can only help us to buy the piano that we will be very happy with for many years. Buying an expensive grand piano is an important and time consuming activity not to be taken lightly. Maybe some people here will disagree with my comments. These comments are my own opinions and are gained from my own experiece of purchasing my first (and probably last who knows!) grand piano. At 6ft and bigger - things start to get REALLY interesting!īest wishes with your piano hunting - try out many pianos before you buy! I would advise any new purchaser of a grand to consider at least a 6 ft piano, as so called "baby" grands really don't have enought bass string length to produce a good bass. I just love it - better by far than any Steinway. The action feels so wonderful to play, has fantastic repetition and is very responsive. I agree with what my technician said about the Kawai Millennium 3 action: "It is the best piano action in the world". The RX prices are better too! I did not like the Essex. The RX6 was my favourite - I prefer the touch and tone of my RX6 to the similar size Steinway. I tried Yamaha (too bright and brassy), Essex (no comment), Boston (made by Kawai & similar to RX, but the action is NOT as good and the price was too much), Schimmel (very nice and not TOO expensive), Petrof (nice - fantastic cosmetically)and Steinways.(quite good, but I don't like the action and of course they are FAR too expensive) I have tried out lots of makes, beleive me. They are excellent! Personally, I prefer a strong bass, so I bought the 7ft RX6. I highly recommend you try the Kawai RX grands.

I really want to spend closer to $15K not $20 but also want to find the right piano and am therefore willing to spend more if it means really getting the right piano.as this is probably the first and last grand I will buy if I get it right. Would the Schimmel be a good deal if my technician finds it to be in good shape? Any other suggestions for used pianos to check out? I would welcome any input from technicians and other experts on which pianos will hold up over time. I liked the new Boston, Essex was ok, but didn't love it.

I haven't tried the Kawai RX series or the Yamaha C series. Tried the Yamaha and Kawai consumer grade levels and found them too tinny, not refined enough in the upper register and too muddy in the bass. I have seen a used Schimmel (appx 20 years old) in pristine condition for $18,500 (CDN), I liked it but haven't had my technician check it out yet. This is the first time I am buying a baby grand, I know what I like, but not sure how certain pianos will fare over the years.

I am a professional musician with many years of piano training. I am in the market for a baby grand, somewhere around 6' is what I can fit in my home.
