Nothing glamorous. I live in an apartment that has cardboard walls and always play with headphones.

It's an N3 (not the X). To the right is a slide-out drawer with the laptop I use for VSTs. In the cabinet below the laptop is the Focusrite interface and other junk.
The speakers are just for media on rare occasions. I don't use them for the piano. (Which, as I said, is headphones-only.)

David-G I'm waiting for your photos. I recall some particularly stunning ones you took of the string field of your piano--beautiful geometric patterns of light reflections on the strings. My photographic eye isn't so good, and the only camera I have anymore is the one on my phone.

I love this thread!

This is our living room with my Steinway M:

The ES920 is in a bedroom:

These are the photos I took in July 2015 after my 1999 Bösendorfer 225 Johann Strauss artcase in pyramid mahogany was delivered. It's still the most beautiful piano that I've ever seen!!

More photos under the cut so that I don't take up the entire feed 🙂

    Hard to argue with that! Looks gorgeous.

    On an unrelated note— how did you do the “details” click down section?

    EDIT— I just saw your post about how to do that in the other thread. Thx!

      Just added a tutorial here when I figured it out! 🙂

      And thank you!!

      Wow! You all have such nice pianos and piano rooms. My Yamaha GC1 baby grand looks puny in comparison. 😅

      I usually prefer the classic black but when I saw your piano I thought "Wow! It's so beautiful!"

      A lot of great pics here. Yes, posting images here is as easy as cut and paste, as it should be. Here is my Yamaha C3X.

      This is the current set up in my tiny studio. Two other grands are hidden in the back.

      This one is the infamous 1887 Steinway D with three front duplex scales and angled bridge pins to give strings within a unison a different speaking length.

        Loving all these photos!!


        Here is my wife's piano - yes, she has her own piano room! It is a Charles Walter console.

        This is my 1960s/70s(?) Kimball Console. This is my "practice piano" for learning the piano technician trade. I'm currently working on tuning a temperament using fourths and fifths as my main intervals, with thirds and sixths to keep me honest. It's been a great instrument for it's purpose and value.

        I hope to get some good photos of my "playing" piano tomorrow. I don't do any kind of technical work on that one. I leave it to the pros.
