A mini-monitor can actually give a realistic piano sound in a normal sized room but they will need (proper) boundary re-inforcement to do so.
One of my favorite record shops, Academy Music in Manhattan, has Harbeth mini-monitors sitting on a high book-shelf above the classical section. The speakers are sitting in close promimity to the ceiling. They sound superb with piano.
The (bass) re-inforcement of the ceiling boundary and the fact that the speakers are not placed equidistant from any two room boundaries helps the speakers in-room response to remain ideally flat and accurate. I hear no huge dips or peaks. Placed this way, the speakers sound faithful to the (piano) recording.
However, if you placed these same speakers on 3 foot high stands, 3 feet from the backwall and six feet from the ceiling you will get a 9 dB null at 113 Hz everywhere in the room and the piano will sound small and miniaturized.
