I have long been a fan of the "B" as the most believable piano, especially sitting at home playing it in its Player preset. It's better in 8 - just a little warmer, a little fuller, and the bass has grown to match its size (I used to think the bass was more like that of the smaller L/O class, even almost like that of the M).
Also, watching your video, I must say that I really like the large single piano-in-a-space picture, compared to the three prior segmental, almost diagramatic pictures -- it somehow just helps sell the idea of the piano in a beautiful performance space, such as the stained glass-filled hall with the late afternoon light streaming in that shows up in the Cinematic Reverb, cleverly leaving the piano in an area of shadow (which makes having the cut-and-paste imaging much easier than trying to have sunlight streaming in on the piano!).
Anyway, it's good all around, aurally and visually.

Thank you dklein so much for your comment.
Best,
Stig
