Fazioli is way much better, and cheaper as well

The problem with this test isn't about the pianos, it's the acoustics of the room and also the basic limitation of a microphone that can't capture the full range of the sound they make. A large concert piano like the D is meant to throw lots of sound in a large space. It's not going to sound hugely different in a small room, but you put the smaller pianos up against it in a real concert hall and listen to them from far away, especially with an orchestra playing, and you'll notice a huge difference, because you would not hear a smaller piano very well over the other instruments in a concert hall.

And not to mention the speaker that you play it back on. If you're using a good quality earbuds versus just your phones speaker. But there's no way to know how they tuned the original recording, mic placement, location of the pians, it's a very poor example of what was heard.

There's good micro from Sony to record piano. Someone recorded the 108 key piano with those microphone and it's really good, but he surely wasn't using something like this

I’ve played a Steinway once back at the conservatory, I had a (good) vertical Yamaha at home for practice but that Steinway feeling stayed under my fingers all day, like an exquisite dish you still think of hours later or a persistent perfume

It’s funny because you actually hear the most difference in the bass notes. La Campanella is probably the worst choice to demo the differences. The model D is 9 ft long but the extra length is only needed down low. String length on that top Eb is likely the same on all of them.

I always say to own a Steinway is a privilege. The models are all amazing pianos.

That model B needs some voicing in the middle of the Piano , it’s very worn

Even I have to say I cannot see enough of a difference to justify the 10x price tag and I'm a professional pianist. That's definitely too much money imo. (It does look absolute stunning tho) Edit: I forgot about how the feel changes pianos. I'm sure th last one is much more satisfying to play

There is so much more to playing a piano than just the sound. And comparing it over a phone I would want to be actually in the store with a pianos as close to each other as possible.

Model D

They do sound amazing. If you can, try a Bösendorfer.

Now do a fazioli f308. Definitely more expensive than a steinway. A piano dealer near me has one so I luckily have gotten the opportunity to play on it. Absolutely immaculate timbre and perfect action.

model b is definitely the best pianos out there it is 6’11 211 cm and it is known as the perfect piano

I can't tell the difference either, but if I had to pick the best sounding one, I'd pick the middle priced one. That's encouraging!

I cant tell the difference

You killed it bro.. .

I just checked out a B. They're going for $133k. Recheck the prices, but great playing regardless of which piano you choose.

They’re made really well, but tbh, at a similar price point, you’re way better off either buying a Shigeru Kawai or a Bösendorfer. At this point, Steinways are like the Lexus or Audi of pianos - they’re quality and they’ll do a great job at getting a job done, but you know better is out there.

KZread compression probably can't begin to convey how differently the model d projects. Its a concert instrument meant to compete for attention with a full orchestra, not a grand meant for a living room.

Like cold celery sticks loaded with Laffy taffy.

I wouldn’t use Campanella to tell me about a piano. There aren’t enough bass notes. That’s where the biggest difference will show in the various sizes. The opening of the Grieg Concerto uses all registers, including all the way down to the lowest A. Campanella does tell you about action, however. Pianos sound more similar in the highest registers and the most different in the lowest. Just saying.

I closed my eyes and listened with Bose noise cancelling head phones and they all sound the same.

Beyond how they sound over the internet is how they FEEL to the player. Actions vary.

I like the 2nd one

This looks like Meridian Music. Am I correct? Fun video.

I prefer the Model B. I spent 4 years at university practicing on one for 5 hours a day, 5 days a week.

I liked the sound of 1 or 3 best.

Differences seem subtle to me - must be due to Steinway quality.

I can’t tell the difference, all the sound came from my phone speaker.

model o is pretty nice ;D

What is your opinion on best to play on?

I think my Band room has the first Piano. I play it ajd I think it's a little too harsh depending on the song. I definitely prefer the black color schemes though

🤩

I'd bet if you took all of them to a stage at a huge venue they would all be listened to through a sound system comprised for many microphones, sound processors, amplifiers and various speaker systems. Add to that the room presence and other ambient noise, sit in the back row and then try to tell the difference blindfolded.

They all sound the same thru my crappy phone speaker

Yeah... I think it's not a very goog idea to listen this on a 200€ smartphone...

Of course is the D-174😎

How long did it take to practice and learn that?

The difference is the price.

Which gallery was this?

Maybe it's just me because they all sound the same. Perhaps, it's really not about the model or the price; it's about the one who plays. You go, Andy.

A gaming mouse company got the model names from pianos lmao

Model B was the most resounding to me.

I'm definitely ready for the $189k model. Please send contact info for shipping logistics
