---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment There are two magnet systems by the same inventor. The one you mentioned used in Petroff( evidenlty it is true) is at: http://home.hetnet.nl/~velo68/internlinks/MFRWEBVELOENG1ahtml.htm I've seen at the PTG conventions magnets used in upright action, and also, you might remember International Piano Brokers, who had the Fazioli booth. They sell an adjustable Magnetic Balanced Action from the same inventor. The magnets are in the keys, not the whippens, as you describe. The NL site says it is available as a retrofit kit...I'd like to know if "we" technicians can install one or if we have to go to a specialist? Sofar I've not heard of anyone retrofitting either of these systems to Steinway Ds. It would have to improve on the Stanwood touchweight system and be less costly to be viable, I think. see links for the MBA from the same inventor at: http://home.hetnet.nl/~velo68/internlinks/MBAWEBVeloeng2004-1htm.html http://www.internationalbrokersinc.com/content.cfm?Page=Mba Richard Adkins Coe College Cedar Rapids, IA ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
