Come again? Your CUSTOMERS can hear the problems at the break??

Thirty years in the business -- I used to sometimes get the odd 
customer (well, maybe not so odd), who complained about the extreme 
bass, down in Octave 1. We'd explore a few notes down there, seeing 
which side of the ambiguity (cheap pianos) they preferred.  Hasn't 
happened for ten or fifteen years. NEVER one who complained about the 
break or the temperament. I've always considered customers clueless 
on the subject of temperaments, unable to hear the differences.

Do you just have smarter customers than I do?
