In Reply to: Ultimate speakers to reproduce grand piano sound? posted by MM on February 18, 2004 at 18:35:56:
Greetings MM,Tried to e-mail you through the Asylum, but it bounced.
I live in New Orleans, so I have a chance to hear some pretty decent live music from time to time. One day in a Barnes & Noble bookstore this pianist was playing some fantastic stuff on an upright piano. His name was Seth Kaufman, and I bought one of his discs.
I liked the disc a lot, so later went to hear him play at a local jazz club. This time he was playing a Yamaha grand piano, and omigod it sounded just like the one on the CD over my demo system! I thought it couldn't be the same one, because the recording had been made two thousand miles away in Los Angeles. But just the same at the end of the concert I went up to him and asked him if that was the same piano he'd used to record "Circling Noon". He said yes indeed it was - he'd had his personal piano crated up and trucked all the way to Los Angeles for the recording session!
So, what were the speakers that recreated the sound of Seth Kaufman's Yamaha grand so convincingly? Well, I was going to tell you in that e-mail that bounced. Asylum rules would frown on my posting it here (I'm probably treading a thin line as it is), so I guess you'll have to e-mail me.
Anyway, whatever direction your quest takes you, best of luck!
Duke
