I know what you're gunna say...it's not an Estonia. But I'm happy to say that I really like it. I just bought a new Kawai RX-2 (with the carbon action) and will take delivery on Friday. After more than half a year of looking, I finally made a purchase and think that its a good one.

Nope - no one's going to say that. Congratulations. RX2 is a beautiful piano, I liked them when I was shopping. Enjoy.
You will be 10 years older, ten years from now, no matter what you do - so go for it!

The piano delivery date was actually pushed up to today (Wednesday) so I will get it sooner than I expected. I will post pics of the piano and room as soon as I get a chance.

It's afternoon already. Where are the pictures? Congratulations and take some close-ups of that carbon in action. That is a very promising concept.
One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.

Congratulations! I have to admit that my absolute favorite piano right now is an RX-2 in french provincial mahogany, what a gorgeous tone! You are going to LOVE this piano! Take pictures so we can see! I'm so jealous....
Congrats!

I just took some photos of the piano but I forgot how to post them in the body of my message. Can someone please post the link on how to do that or explain how. Thanks a lot. The pics should be up by this evening!

Beautiful piano! I've always liked the RX's. I'm sure it sounds excellent in that room. Is that on the ground level or did the movers have to bring it up stairs?

We have a rancher so the piano is on the ground level. The movers put a little wooden ramp to get the piano up one step. The piano does sound great in the room.
