Best speaker/system piano concerts

Yeah terry9...I was simply yammering...I prefer simple stuff...single ended amp, tube preamp, clean ear canals, etc. 

Kalili...2 good condenser mics, one over the treble side and one down the bass side does the job. Some EQ and general level tweaking is applied to each mic and you have to make sure there are no phase issues (that's obvious and rare really). Some pianists bring their own mics for this (Fred Hersch...can't remember what mic he used, but hey...they worked fine), and I did a show with Eldar (youngish hot shot piano player, nice guy) who wanted to take the large diaphragm condenser mic I was using as an overhead on the drums and stick it in the Steinway with the lid closed (supported by a stand sticking through the lid crack)...that worked also.

Yes, I believe in speed, and that 4 letter word " prat ".

a good reason for attending church choir practice

sit on the bench and three other places and you will get religion, and then a mic feed listen will turn you into an athiest..

ha.

Piano's, you want piano sound.....
Two words: Steinway Lyngdorf, makers of fine pianos and the worlds best audio equipment.
There ya go, thank me later!

I have B and W 802 D3s. They are superb with piano music of all kinds.
Many people consider the B and W 800 series the best transducers 
for piano music on the market. The sound on mine is very hard to distinguish from the real think and I have a steinway for comparison.
