color:navy'>I should qualify that: out of the box Kawai is better, and since
most pianos you encounter are out of the box and haven’t had an adequate prep,
this gives an edge to brands like Kawai or Yamaha. But a little voicing and
regulation work makes the YC come alive compared to the Kawai, my anecdotal
evidence. YMMV<o:p></o:p></span></p>
