Disklavier

I'm very impressed with the Disklavier systems from Yamaha (DC1 and 
DC2). Unfortunately one dealer has my state locked up for Yamaha.  
Since there is no competition in this state, I was more or less 
forced to give careful consideration to other brands.

  I've been looking at an Kawai RX-1 with PianoDics's PDS-128+. 
Tonight I did a pretty extensive test drive of the RX-1 complete with 
laptop and midi applications. I like the touch and sound of the 
piano. The PDS-128+ seems to work well and it certainly is a nice 
player piano. The midi functions worked but weren't intuitively easy 
like some of the newer digital pianos. Still all in all it seems 
quite workable.

  Anyone have experience with both systems who can offer a compelling 
reason why I should buy Yamaha? The Kawai dealer comes across much 
more straight forward. I've also received very positive testimonials 
from local musicians on the Kawai dealer. And so far he has tried no 
negative selling, no scare stories, just a very honest appraisal of 
the market and his wares.

  So while I very much like the Yamaha products. I don't like the 
state wide monopoly. The Kawai products with PDS seem similar and I 
can get multiple quotes in state with local service.

  Any truly compelling reason to go with Yamaha (which I think is a 
fine product)?
