Thank you for doing this! There aren't enough gram weight tests out there. It's not a perfect test of force measurement but it's FAR more accurate than guessing or saying an action is "heavy" or "light". I created a whole set of gram weights in 2g intervals myself but this still helps set some expectations before I go into the piano showrooms.
Hi. I tried the NV10 but it was a little too expensive and my computer didn't work well with it for running VSTs. Although, it's a wonderful instrument and I'm sure I would be happy with it if I owned one.
张帆 well, ur right that the bass hammerheads are in fact bigger and there for heavier but those factors determine the leadweight put into the single keys so the action remains consistent trough out the whole keyboard. On a well regulated piano, the weight difference between treble and bass shouldnt be much higher than 4 grams. If u want, check out the youtube channel of "Roberts Pianos", where a nice british man, who worked as a piano technician for decades, explains a whole lot about all this stuff.

I like to know some of the particulars as well. It must be our analytical natures. 🙂
Did you consider the Novus? I've got a screaming deal of an opportunity for a new one.

Bass notes have much bigger hammer so they are heavier in acoustic grand piano, seems AG action copied
