If I may...
The ADI-2 DAC (and Pro) includes a Width setting. You can change from stereo to mono in 99 steps, making the recorded piano as wide as it suits your speaker placement or taste. Additionally one can use Crossfeed not only for headphones, but also for speakers. Crossfeed can be used to attenuate unrealistic or too strong ambience, without making everything sound mono. The combination of both is a powerful way to fix issues pointed out in this thread.
Of course Width is a very basic and simple effect, so if you have no ADI get it as free plugin or similar and use it on your computer during playback.
