I am moving my upright Disklavier from a carpetted room to the family room which has hardwood floors. Do I need to put something under to piano, such as rubber or carpeted cups, to both protect the floors and to keep the piano anchored? Thanks and Merry Christmas to the Disklavier Community.

I think something under the 4 casters is a good idea but not necessary. Sometimes it is necessary to move the piano out from the wall and you would not want to scratch your floor. You can get caster cups with carpeting on the bottom, or my favorites are the ones at Home Depot that have teflon on them.. Makes it very easy to move the piano.

I have an upright M100 MKII on a hardwood floor with wood and rubber floor protectors under the feet. They are about 2 inches square from Home Depot. Look good and protect the floor. Regards, Mike

Ralph, I just got a DGC1 baby grand and I put my entire piano on an area rug. Carpet helps the noise from resonating off the ground and absorbs the sound more. Get a rug large enough to accomodate the piano as well as the chair.

I've seen the cups used, and I think the 2-3" are a good size. Also, when you move the piano to the other room, is it a straight shot or the legs have to come off. May need piano movers if that's the case. Sam --- Ralph Specht <thespechts@...> wrote:
