This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi guys,=20 I didn't know that this list allows for the discussion of piano = purchasing until I saw the previous post. Anyway, I was looking around = for an upright and have narrowed down the search to 3Bs( C. Bechstein, = Bluthner, Bosendorfer) and 1S( Sauter). I was told by one dealer to go = with my feelings and not pay attention to the sales talk, readily = dispensed by the piano retailers.=20 In particular, I love the Bluthner a lot. It really has a honey-sweet = tone and is fantastic for the romantic pieces. However, when I played = baroque or classical pieces on it, it sounded weird. Later, I tried a = Sauter M-Line series and was truly impressed with the tone. Now, the = Sauter dealer whom I spoke to had great things to say about Bluthner. = Ironically, the only thing he found displeasing and pleasing at the same = time was with the sweet tone( i feel the same too). Sauter has never = made it to the stage arena, but the sophisticated cabintry and the = high-grade material they use for the building of the piano is legendary, = or so he says. So, you see, I am in some sort of a dilemma here. If I'm buying the = Bluthner upright, I will pray and hope that my mozarts be better = sounding in a couple of years.Conversely, if I buy the Sauter, I will be = praying hard that whatever the anti-Sauter dealers say would not = manifest on my M-line series. Any help, opinionated or not is greatly appreciated. ...Zeng ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
