Hi Ron, Not bad--but are we not supposed to look at a piano from the ideal? I know there are lots of new pianos that don't do 8 seconds at c6--but does that make them worthy? And of course some hundred year old uprights still do 11 or 12 seconds. Now THAT *is* impressive. Could any of the more experienced suggest what would happen to sustain time if Phil replaced the strings? Would it get better or worse?
