Steve Siu's article was interesting! I have also spent some time amusing myself with these automotive comparisons. I actually came to many of the same conclusions: Yamaha is Toyota, Kawai is Honda, Hyundai is Hyundai(!), Baldwin is Chevy, Fazioli is Lamborghini, etc. I would add the Baldwin Hamilton is the Chevy Impala (many units sold, varying quality over the years) and the Acrosonic is the Corvair! (Not necessarily bad, but just odd. Spinets are like cars with the engine in the back.) Dave
