Hi Rob,

I do see a number of these here, and they're pretty good pianos, in all.  I
find the construction and materials quality to be nice.  Not the best piano
I've seen, but in the top tier anyway.  I'd say they're comparable to Kawai,
Yamaha, etc., but I don't think I'd suggest they were in any way better than
either of those, just different.  Generally a darker palette, sometimes
leading to a little too muddy, but they respond well to voicing if
necessary.  Good pianos, IMO.
