Can anyone suggest a good grand piano sound font?

I am currently using a soundfont downloaded from the Hammer site, mentioned on the Noteworthy Homepage.  It is called Stereo Grand Piano and sounds fantastic.  The only problem is that it has a slight static or clicking noise in the 12 to 14 KHz range, and this is made worse whenever I try to record anything.  The music sounds a bit like a scratchy old record.  Can anyone suggest a really good grand piano soundfont?  Most of the ones I have found have little reverberation and sound tinny.  If you can help please email

The best place to ask soundfont related questions is the soundfonts newsgroup.

If you are not content with what you have found on Hammersound, try this or this.

I use a sample (.sf2) by Sören Bovbjerg. It's a very nice Steinway grand with 8 velocity layers. Sounds very realistic. I got it through Hammersound.
Hope this helps.
