Post Subject: Humidity control piano vs. room.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 8/28/2014

Hey, what do you know? We got that 1908 Mason and Hamlin. It was delivered last night and I have made Any to play for me my Mikael Tariverdiev's Memories sonata. The Mason does need some work and our technician told that she will do it in a week of so... " after the piano get use to the new room". I generally like the sound of this instrument and it shall be much better after some minor problems will be address. IT does not have that "glowing" lower register of larger pianos but I think this all size that we need in our current room.

I am thinking now about a climate control. For the piano. It is most in the lace we leave. The Dampp-Chaser systems are fine but they control humidity in a small zone under soundboard and by passive methods. It is also $650. For this money I am considering to put in use a whole room humidity control system. The house has hot water heating and center air-conditioning, and a huge basement under piano room. I do not think it should be hard to put some kind of stationary humidity control system in basement...
