What do you base this on? Does anyone know the origin of this kind of = thinking? Not even Steinway marketing would agree with this: "... the equally erroneous theory that sound "vibrations" in some way = travel transversely across the soundboard. But, as has been shown here, = the movement of the board is that of the movement of the strings, up and = down in the case of a grand, backward and forward in the case of a piano = of vertical construction." Hold onto your hats: I agree with Steinway! Terry Farrell ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
