Hey André, I thought this question was just for Stéphane, but I see other people are replying so I'll add to it. I personally prefer older pianos in good shape to newer pianos. I have played plenty of older pianos which sound worse than new ones, but I've never played a new piano which sounds better than the best old ones I've played. Though it'd just depend on the state of either of the D's - if I had to choose without seeing, the newer D is a safer bet. - John > I have posed this question before : > > If you had the choice : you can get a brand new Steinway D and you can > get a hundred year old Steinway D... > What would be your choice? > > André Oorebeek
