What was the price?

Who is the pianist who is playing them so beautifully, if I may ask??

Where are you located? Any advice for a Miami resident? Thxxx

What would be interesting is to compare a model O and a model L. Those pianos as essentially the same size, with different scale designs.

O

O sounds warmer in the midrange

I prefer the B sound. Richer, more mellow and round.

Idk ill take both of them!! 😂😂

The differences are so marginal, both grands sound fantastic! I wish I had only one of the two at home ...

It depends on the room size, if yo put model B in a small room, pianist could have hearing loss overtime... Model B is good for a small-med recital hall & model O is for an average living room.

Yes, the first chord of the Henry Z was much warmer. The tri-cent has its place too.

Oh my what a beautiful piano The Steinway how sweet the sound plus it’s not that patent leather finish 🤮 n to the commentor who has a Steinway with mahogany finish be still my heart her with gentle care n play her lovingly with immense joy 🎹🎼❤️

😊❤😮😢😊😢

Piano Stainway and sons is very expensive ; it’s luxury piano. I just play piano Petrof ; sometimes I play Yamaha U1 or Kawai K300 upright. It’s OK.

I love my😅model B mahogany.

What pieces are being played please?

I hAve heard both in person multiple Times. Model O is Warm and Soft; Model B is Mellow. There is a Difference between Mellow and Warm. I prefer Model A

I prefer the model B over the model O in this comparison. The B is voiced more uniformly, and its tones are purer. Also, the B has a longer tone sustainability in mid high register which makes those beautiful melodies in Schumann and Chopin pieces more touching!

Model B sounds closer to an upright compared to the Model O, which almost sounds like a Model D.

I like 150th anniversary version sound because it sounds more like the modern one In Steinway showroom. It has more tone color and broader reverb.

Pianoteq is what I use for the Steinway sound. A real one would require constant tunings and maintenance. That gets expensive all by itself.

Henry Z sounds much warmer and fuller. I love the sound of it.

I got a new piano from best choices products with headphones and microphone.

Beautiful...!❤️🙏

Piano on the right is darker. Sounds like my 1923 Baldwin M 6’3”. I prefer the first one on the left in this recording. Much more presence!

I wish comparison could be playing more challenging repertoire with a better pianist. Both pianos are great, what is there to compare??

Grande Bruno!!! E' stato un piacere conoscerti

My grandparents had a Baby Steinway in their 1894 built estate home in Coconut Grove. It sounded just like this.

J.S BACH. WELL TEMPERED CLAVIER

Sound very beautiful, I wonder about level 3, what happen in case of international shipment? The piano lose the performance level? , Is it easy to keep level 3 with local pro piano technician?, anyway, congrats for your pianos, they sound and look very impressive.

What piece I mean who’s work.

This just isn’t working for me. No recording will ever sound like sitting near a piano being played live.

It is very hard to hear you I was just listening to other videos and when I started playing yours you sound very very far away I don’t know how far away your microphone else but just so you’re aware

Is it possible improve the performance to level 4 or 5 on Steinway Spirio-R model B?

there is no question that the 1947 concert piano (to right) is superior in tone, just needs some needling of hammerheads. It is for this reason I play a fully restored and customized 1883 Steinway Model A 6 foot grand piano. (Yes, I did say 1883) I actually fitted Steinway B hammerheads and shanks to the 1883 Model A, but ground away a bit of the heavier felt to equalize touch to original. It provides a fully concert sound out of a smaller piano.

Hi. Thanks for the video. I'm not an expert. But judging by my own experience, I find model B much richer in sound characteristics, although model O sounds definitely louder in the video. But model B has a sweet, pure, and long-sustaining characteristic in the upper register, which is exactly what I would seek in a Steinway piano. The sound quality seems much more uniformly distributed to me in model B rather than the other one. In contrast, model O seems to be boosting frequencies between 250Hz and 500Hz, which makes its sound quality uneven.

That B, not even close. It was divine

I think the difference is mainly from the year they are made. The sound of model O is more like Hamburg made Steinway since the company begin to unify their appearance and regulation. The model b sound very typical NY Steinway, warm soft and rich sound.

The pianist is just wonderfully brilliant, especially sitting at the model B playing the Schumann piece.

Model B sounds absolutely amazing, much better and crisper than O

Model B

The Baldwin sound in the recording is extremely warm. Reminds me of the good old Steinways.

If the 1947 gets a nice fine voicing treatment to smoothen a bit, it's a superior instrument to my ears.

Man, you're a character Maestro Bruno. Too bad these style of sales will be extinct in a few decades. It's so entertaining. "We don't find out piano, our piano find us".

That color jacket amongst all those beautiful pianos!!! So a Steinway grand still needs 60 hours of work on it after you buy it to get it to a level "5"? Why??

They are both so very close. The extra foot of length on the B is hardly noticeable to me. The O still sounds like a bigger piano. Superb quality on both. As I said, the difference is hardly noticeable. The tone seems pure on both.

The "L" is very close to the "O" and are like the "Fraternal Twins" of Steinway pianos, not identical, but surely twin-like in their performance. What a beautiful sweet and honest sound this piano has. I would be beaming with pride to be its' caretaker.

I'm always so impressed with the sound of the Model "O". It seems to have a warm Bass and Tenor, not overly boomy, with a fairly bright yet honest Treble. This piano has such an even and soothing tone and the case is just gorgeous.

I'm afraid you can't really tell the difference in resonance and the deep sound of the 'B' over the 'O' without hearing them both in person. Computer speakers aren't meant for that.

Model B is so much better than O O feels like model B if it was singing while squeezing their nose
