Hi Scott,

I will gladly send you my settings (PAS and Tyros) to give you a point to start your testing (I do not have my Tyros with me until tomorrow night). They are not very different from Gary's. Please check out this thread for details; Gary and Eddie are the real experts and they helped me a lot: http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/010996.html

My european PAS came with presets_v2 already. I'm using preset #57 in both channels #1 and #2. And with this preset and roughly with the keyboard settings Gary is using, I would be very surprised that you find the grand piano (and all the other sounds) 'absolutely dead'. One more thought: it is possible that after a new audition, you still prefer the grand piano sound through a high quality conventional PA like yours, if you are on the right spot. Like I said before this is a hi-fi system, made with high quality components, BUT the real inovation is in the way it reaches an audience. Dispersion is amazing and this results in top clarity.

I will come back as soon as possible.
