I do think the way to judge the quality of a piano is to see if it can play what you want it to play. you have to be careful not to play sloppily or overpedal because it will project the 'mistakes'. There is so much resonance going on in the Estonia. (but, i bought it 'out of the box and except for tunings and expert routine care by my able tech it's not been in any way voiced or regulated.) To me the Petrof seemed thinner and maybe a bit clearer - with the clarity of a Yamaha for instance that has a bit of a quicker decay. The Petrof's octave above middle c seemed to be more prominent than the octave below middle c.

Would i have been just as happy with a Petrof? probably, maybe. The bass was louder and deeper.I've had my piano for gosh will it be 2 years in June? and you can control in a way, the pulse of the waves. The Estonia sustains longer, sounds more complex -with more overtones and a wave effect that sounds with a ringing tone. I was ecstatic when the piano was set up. This is hard for me to answer because i ordered my Estonia 168 and i had only played a 190 at an Estate sale for just a few minutes and i was instantly enamored with the 190. For the price difference, I would stick with the Petrof over the Weinbach.Ī Petrof IV was available in KC. We are thinking of upgrading to a Petrof grand piano.

The tuning holds up remarkably well and the tone is quite beautiful. I have had a Petrof vertical for the past 10 years and have been most pleased with it. You will also note that Weinbach is presented in secondary order to the Petrof and is described as being an international collaboration of design and manufacturing from Czech, US, Germany, and China while the Petrof is not described in this manner. Petrof's grand piano sizes are 5'3", 5'8", 6'4" and all the way up to 9'. I am surprised that you found a 6'4" Weinbach, it looks like the Weinbach grand pianos are issued at different sizes from the Petrof - 5'0", 5'5" and 6'0". The string material is also different and so too is the rim. Petrof is a superior product line: the keyboard is made of solid spruce while in the Weinbach it is made of veneers. Check out the Geneva International's website (US distributer for Petrof, Weinbach, and Nordiska pianos) for the specifications of the different Petrof and Weinbach models. My Weinbach is black walnut, and the cabinetry is absolutely gorgeous and cost no more than ebony. An advantage of both Weinbachs and Petrofs is that they do not charge more for finishes other than ebony. Of course, the Petrof's action, being magnetic, was lighter and more responsive than the Weinbachs'. I compared a Petrof with MAA with three Weinbachs the same size, and as each instrument is, of course different, I found the sound of two of the three Weinbachs preferable to that of the Petrof. The price you quote was similar to the deal I got in Chicago last month. My Weinbach has Renner parts mounted on a Petrof frame. Weinbach has a smaller selection of sizes and models, and the magnetic accelerated action is available only in the Petrof.

The materials are supposed to be identical, and the pianos are until now manufactured in the same plant. I also noticed that the Weinbach has a so-so decal on the fallboard whereas the Petrof has the name engraved (really cool). The dealer stated that the pianos are identical except that the Petrof has glossy paint on the plate and has green felt rather than red. I just chose between a 6' 4" Petrof and Weinbach.
