Umm, I don't get the part about the key leads either.
Doing something like taking up or putting down carpet, trying a =
different position in the room or just somehow changing the room =
acoustics, etc., can make a huge difference. It could be why some folks =
are disappointed after they get their pianos home, "It sounded so =
different in the dealer's showroom." It happens; I've dealt with it.
My "vast" experience (choke--choke--you can stop laughing and get up off =
the floor now) has taught me that hammers that are *too* heavy actually =
stifle some of the sound. =20
I'll have the combo, please--the best regulation, the right hammer, the =
preferred voice combined with room dynamics. (Make that with a Dr. =
Pepper--I lived in Texas for a while.) ;-)

I agree with you though, lead in the keys alone isn't going to do much =
for tone.
