Yamaha's CX Series, to yunmom

Recently (late last year?), Yamaha introduced CX Series to replaced its C Series.  It’s Yamaha’s attempt to upgrade its grand piano line from “Asian” sounding pianos to a “European” sounding pianos.  They reached the goal.  I was invited to test-drive the new line:  The C and CX sound very differently.  What makes that happen is the use of different materials.  Mainly in the following areas:

Thicker back posts;
Bavaria spruce (commonly used in European pianos) replaced Alaska spruce for soundboard;
German wool for the hammers;
German steel for the strings.

Other than acoustic difference, there are cosmetic changes, too.  But they are not something I am interested.  You may ask the dealer for more details, or visit: http://usa.yamaha.com/products/musical-instruments/keyboards/grandpianos/gp-cx/?mode=series#tab=feature

The model numbers are a little confusing.  They are not CX3, CX5, etc., but they are C3X, C5X.
