perfect piano weight

what would you consider the perfect piano weight for the keys? Too light and we don't have a good rebound effect and can't play fast and cleanly very well. Too heavy and we will be bogged down. So what do you prefer?

anything between no-sound and noise, depends on what you're playing. the trick is to figure out how to use your arm - just pay attention on how your arm feels at different kinds of attacks and "memorize" that feel.
