Disklavier

I'm seriously considering adding a DSR-1 to my MarkIIXG. Will this add
benefits other than the ability to play PianoSmart disks?  Have you
heard any of the PianoSmart disk/CD combos?  I would appreciate feedback
from yourself and PianoBench. My technical knowledge is mostly in
computers and I am pretty dumb about the DKV systems ( as you can
probably tell).

A DSR-1 retails for $1295 from a Yamaha dealer. For anyone ever buying a
"specific" piano, ALWAYS write down the serial number of the unit you
think
you are getting!!!!  Having been in this business for over 25 years I am
familiar with the scenario whereby what the customer hears is not what
the
salespeople intended.  Salespeople can also be misinformed - especially
when
trying to piece together a "great deal" that just does not exist.
Perhaps
this dealership sold not only Disklavier, but PianoDisc or QRS as well.
A
newbie salesperson might not be aware that a Disklavier is ONLY factory
installed.

I am happy that you are pleased with your purchase.  I doubt you got
ripped
off.  You have a new instrument with a terrific warranty.  You got a
price
you were happy with.  Perhaps they can also make you a good deal on the
DSR-1!
