I feel that I must comment on this matter . I among two other technicians
here in Iceland own and operate a small piano store. We sell among other
brands
"Kawai" pianos .We have never had any trouble with them to speak of  and
even before we started to sell them we all liked them very much and found
them easy to tune. I´m very surprised to hear from some of you out there
that they have a lot of false beats . I have always found them very clean
sounding in the treble and always when I come to tune a piano and find out
that it is a Kawai I know that the next hour and a half will not be to
difficult .
	When they are new in my store they need to be checked and tuned a
few times before they are stable ,just like any piano , but we have sold
quite a few tto music schools and they are especially happy with them
because they stay well in tune . I put them in the same quality category as
Yamaha and I like both brands very much .
I would be interested in getting comments from you guys out there about the
new  RX-series grand pianos if you have had any experience with them .
