I have heard that said. I have not heard its implementation. I have also
heard that because of the thicker Yamaha soundboard (because, at least in
part, of its softer rim) the piano really needs the harder hammer to do
whatever its supposed to do. Does the piano still have good power with the
replacement hammers (what about Renner)?
