Hi Keith, Don is paid to write when his brand is "under attack" nothing surprizing in fact, he evgen can be very aggressive aboutr it as I noticed yet. I for one write may be a little too much provocative sometime, most generally it is because I am deceived with something and please take it like emotional answer. I know I could try to be more neutral, but hey ! in the end that's me, I am acting like that as well in real, so i see no real reason to try to look differently than I am on the net. The Stuart samples I was expecting a better tone to listen for, indeed the piano look nice, but I feel things like voicing problems, and a too straight tone that should not stand more power, it can be caused by regulation or voicing, but as this came from a recording i have suggested that was due to the compression format, and I hope it is the final reason. The treble and high treble sound nice the tone makes me think of some Pleyel that lack particularely dynamics, while having a pleasing tone whatever the way you play. But the recording does not allow me to appreciate the tone really in the end. So I regret if you feel my comments as being totally negative, I most probably try to be honestly critical, I do the same with my work daily and hate the self contenting attitude that prevail in some trades. We need to be confident and pleased easely but stay critical as well. Best Regards.
