Steingraeber is the best piano I've ever played on in my life, without a doubt. It surpasses all the Bluthners and Bosendorfers and Steinways and Faziolis you could muster.
My friend got a 6' Steingraeber, and I go to his house to practice on it. It's just the most incredible piano you could play on.
The action feels like whatever you want it to be - for quick, light passages, the keys just fall away at your touch, but when you play with more force, the keys offer more resistance, which gives better control over the sound you make. Futhermore, the tone is simply unmatched. Every note shines through perfectly, yet does not drown out anything else. And it's amazing for chamber music, specifically (though the concert grand is probably better for concerts). No matter how great a fortissimo you reach, somehow the sound it creates doesn't drown out other sounds in the room. It's impossible to describe, and imperitive to hear.
I would certainly give a lot for a Steingraeber Grand. If you happen to have a hundred thousand dollars sitting around, there's no better way to spend it than on a Steingraeber.
