I'd agree with the first part of this.  I'd advise the customer to find 
a piano they really like - like perhaps a new Bösendorfer or other 
high-end brand.  Then fit it with a system that won't limit their 
playback and piano choices.
Any player (Yamaha or otherwise) is going to be limited by the piano 
itself.  If they truly want something at performance level a new 
high-end piano fitted with a player system is going to be able to do a 
lot more, and will therefore be a much better value to the customer, and 
better use of their money.
