Hope he makes a fortune. $900 for a piano that heats up the wires and uses infrared to autotune your piano while you play is pretty amazing.

Same. I found this because I got my piano tuned yesterday and it bothers me it can't sound that wonderful every day - bothered me even more that it did not seem to exist as a commercial project or DIY solution. I'm in KC so might try to connect, maybe even get it for my Kawai!

I wonder if it uses Opporknockity strings, the ones that only tune once?

Supposed to be able to install on any piano, and remove without any sort of permanent damage or anything, can see on this page https://dgdevices.com/gallery

My opportunity to use that old joke only knocked once.

Well, I don't think face palm emojis are support on HN, but certainly this would be the time for one, Ha!
