Frequently Asked Questions
The Seiler action prioritizes a more direct, tactile feel; it's less 'floaty' than some Yamahas and offers a different level of nuance compared to the more powerful Steinway action.
Yes, the soundboard is pre-stressed, a standard practice for Seiler pianos, but the exact degree is proprietary information – it contributes to the piano’s mature tonal character.
Due to the substantial weight, a reinforced floor is essential; a professional piano mover and ideally a dedicated piano dolly are highly recommended for safe installation.
