I have not tried any of the Young Chang and thus I do not know about the quality.

I have come to know that Young Chang's Platinum Series is equivalent to Kawai's RX, Yamaha's C and both their uprights, according to Larry Fine.

He points out that the quality is about the same and the price is significantly cheaper than the Yamaha and Kawai. I am wondering how accurate is his comparison.
