DGH1BII or U1HQ100. Which would you rather own?

2008-01-14 by uhhmmmmmmmmmm

Thank you for the confirmation. I've been browsing through this great 
messageboard for more information.  I think what I'm reading is that 
people in the know generally prefer the upright U series disklaviers 
over the DGH1BII baby grands for sound.  I like the look of a baby 
grand but sound is important too.

I am torn between the two because I can obtain a 1992 model DGH1BII for 
around $7900 or a 1994 Japanese Market U1HQ100 for $2900 (both include 
delivery costs).  Which would you choose? ;)  I like the look of the 
DGH1BII but it does cost more and the sound/tuning apparently isn't as 
good.  Sorry to be so flaky.  I've seen both models and they look 
great, but I'm a beginning player so I really can't comment on the 
action and sound.
