  • Can you hear the difference between an expensive piano and a cheap piano? I started the video playing on cheap pianos and gradually increased their quality. Can you hear the difference between them? Which one is the best?

    In my opinion, somewhere after the piano for $275 thousand, the difference in sound became less and less significant. I even liked the sound of the mentioned piano more than the more expensive variants. I think the cost is more justified by the design, the material of the case, the limitations, the brand and the status of the architect. And the filling is not much different

      Same for me. 100,000 to 275 thousand was miniscule and after that, there was maybe a slight tonal difference from one instrument to the other, but not a difference in quality.

      ​​@@shannamcmellon572 that depends on the model of the piano. Not unless it's a concert grand piano, and the seller really wants to get rid of it to the point of selling it for 2K which in most cases highly unlikely. A grand piano still feels different to play than an upright piano.
      Also for those curious I would like to add that Vinheteiro might have gotten the labels for the Bechstein Concert8 and Hoffmann T161 mixed up because the Bechstein Concert8 is an upright piano🎹🎶

      It may seem some sound a bit fuller and some sound somewhat brighter, but the differences are minute from what you can tell out of a youtube video which for sure does not use the most audiophile coded for audio compression (it usually simply does not have to).
      Assuming more or less ide tical methods of recording, being left or right of a grand piano due to the open lid makes a difference. But then they are in different rooms with different characteristics and reflections, and most of all, they are made of different materials, wood, resin, steel. So there have to be at least very fine differences. If most of us are able to tell those apart? Nah, don't think so.

    I liked the $50 upright and the next one up, the best. I was a piano technician apprentice for the premier piano technician in the U.S. in the 70's-80's. He was flown all over the country to voice (not a tuner but worked with them) symphony pianos. In the studio in Phoenix, we restored all kinds of wonderful old pianos, uprights and grands alike, and my boss was already warning about the use of teflon bushings and other non-organic materials in modern brands, against how the pianos were originally made and how they needed to be restored using the same organic materials. Wool felts and hammers, felt bushings, animal glues, even ivory keys were hard to find from used sources at that early time. To me, all the really expensive grands sounded very bright and harsh, might have been in part the show room acoustics, but I'd rather have and hear the richer tone of the organic older instrument. Thank you so much for your excellent video and the illustration that reminded me of my early training.

      I don't know much about pianos but I agree with you, instruments back in the day were made with real natural materials and that must have something to do with how they sound. I also prefer the 50$ and 700$ ones! They sound like the pianos our great aunts and grandma's had. A nostalgic sound that carries something beyond what an expensive modern one can render. I also noticed that these two aforementioned were upright pianos, since I don't know much about the subject,.maybe that's why they sound different?

    No one is going to argue that Faziolis don't have a beautiful tone, but the amazing thing is that Paolo Fazioli and his company manage to do whatever the client wants (even build pianos out of bizarre casing materials) and still retain that magnificent sound and key action, which is unlike any other piano that's been built. Italian craftsmanship at its finest. I think you could commission Fazioli to put a piano in a dumpster and expect the same level of sound quality and key feel, and that's why they start at almost $300,000.

I respect Fazioli's craftsmanship, their concert grands are among the best in business on the highest level with the best of Bösendorfers and Steinways, but the metal piano is just no. I understand that at that point it's a work of art rather than an instrument, but honestly they shouldn't have agreed to do that for any money if they were to put their name on it. It's not a good representation of their brand in terms of sound. lol

Whether this was the room it was located in, or something about the make of the piano itself, it has a wonderful sound.

      @@caelestigladii no offense, but that is silly. Anything one might find preferable about analog gear (outside of placebo effect), has everything to do with the gear used…not the source recorded. Some analog gear sounds like trash. Some sounds subjectively good because of the way it literally distorts the recording - that’s right, analog character comes from harmonic distortion, not fidelity. Further, what do you even mean by “analog”? Any and every mic used is going to be “analog” on the front end, and most likely the back. Preamp, maybe or maybe not. But then what…are you suggesting that if they’d recorded to tape it would be more transparent? Lol. No. Bottom line, all other things being equal, a well done digital recording at adequate bit/sample rate is going to represent the source as it actually is better than any vague, nondescript allusion to an “analog” signal chain. There’s finer details one could consider about a/d conversion, but all this hooplah folks regurgitate about analog universally being better is very uninformed. Some gear sounds great, just as some software processing sounds great. But that has nothing to do with accuracy and fidelity of raw recordings. Peace.

It's still beautiful, sounds great (given professional tunings along the way), and has a few small scars from festive drink glasses across the top. We still have the original key for the keyboard cover. This piano is a Time Machine; it stores family history, family memories. It show up in so many family photos .. some going all the way back to WW2. This piano is like family ... we'd grieve if we let it go. Pianos are (can be) special .. very special.

In my opinion it is hard to really appreciate the differences when you listen to a recording, because it will always depend on the microphone you use to record, the ambient where the piano is located, the compression you choose to edit the recording, the chipset of your computer sound or mobile phone (the equalizer settings), the quality of your headphones or the speakers 🤭. Although you can hear the differences, at the end of the day the perception and acceptance will be different to each person. I think there are many models among them which sound fabulous.

    Once you get around $300K, any differences in sound quality there might be become too slight for me to distinguish. Whatever I thought I heard might be different, I could just as easily chalk up to the difference in acoustics as to the pianos themselves. Tough to be sure when they are each in a different kind of acoustic environment. Although I guess the $3 million gold one did sound different enough to not just be acoustics, but presumably the gold making the difference. Not sure it was actually a better sound though, just a little bit different in a way that probably wasn't the acoustics. Several of them I expect the absurd price to be to the artsy nature of the frame rather than anything particularly special about the materials or mechanics of how it plays.
