No thank you!<< I have never discounted my install prices to dealers. The going rate provides a tech who works efficiently a very good profit. >>And I certainly would not want to sell a system that the manufacturer considered "ancient technology" after 5 years! << Heck no. Sell them a QRS and they can have the ancient technology right up front. Why wait five years for it? >>I prefer to refer the work to someone more experienced.<< Fair enough. >>My concern is that the most experienced people I know, who actually did MANY installations when they worked for the dealer, no longer are willing to service the PianoDisc systems.Why?<< Lazy, incompetent, just don't wanna do it? >> From the calls I get, when that dealer does send a technician, they are unable to fix the problem. Why?<< Lazy, incompetent, just don't wanna do it? Hard to say. The system is not particularly difficult to repair. >>It doesn't help the reputations of any of us to have customers sitting out there with piano-playing systems that won't play and cannot be properly serviced. << Agreed >>So help me out and recommend someone!<< If no one on the list from your area sees this, you can call PianoDisc. They have the tech list. Dave Bunch
