| How does solo piano help you evaluate audio gear? I find a great test is plugging in my own keyboards (Technics P30 stage piano and Roland fp5) and it instantly exposes any weaknesses. Have a beautiful refurbed Brinsmead (great British make) upright fettled by an excellent tuner until funds stret... | |
