My wife plays piano. I am a lapsed student of the instrument.
I put on some audiophile record (forget what it was, but it had excellent piano reproduction) on the big system and she called from the other room - "Is that YOU??" It sounded so much like her piano in the next room.
Most of the time recorded piano doesn't really sound like a real piano played (even in the next room).
I tried it later on my Electrostat system and it works there too - pretty sure it wouldn't if it was a hybrid speaker mating a cone woofer with the main panels.
