I haven't tried to Blüthner S, the Steingraeber 138 or Bösendorfer 130 but so far it's the most impressive upright I've tried. Better than Seiler, Schimmel and the Kawai 800 or Yamaha SU7
I do have a new-ish Concert 8, that is still settling in. Bluthner B is also very nice, and the Bosendorfer is comfortable. I would say I found that Steingraeber 138 or 130 would be the strongest rival, though. (Grotrian also makes excellent uprights if you like their sound.)
@@RModillo I've visited a store one day on a business trip who was supposed to sell Grotrian but unfortunetly they were out of stock... So I have had this chance yet. But it's on my list
@@Javier-jn6cc that is the C8 concert, they do not. Perhaps they chose to not add agraffes in upper register to make it more singing and add some harmonics. It would be interesting to test full agraffes VS V-bar (capo d’astro in grands). I wouldn’t say with certainty one is better than the other without extensive tests. I’m sure the choice was made wisely and backed by research of Bechstein engineers. Hope this helps!

That’s a beautiful store. Nothing like that in Vancouver when I bought my Bosendorfer

What is real difference between Concert 8 and C8? Bechstein support told me it’s the same but different name.
@@goldenstasgs No difference. Bechstein support is correct, C8 is just an abbreviation for Concert 8🙂
Thank goodness. I have new Bechstein Concert 8 white 2022 with my name on it❤😊
Is that a Concert 8? I thought they had agraffes all the way?

Sorry, aber nicht optimal intoniert. Besonders die mittleren Register. Gut intoniert klingt es wesentlich weicher. Habe das gleiche Modell
Nothing amazing. American Pianos are better sounding pianos.
There are many of amazing pianos from around the whole world! It all comes down to personal preference at the of of the day.
