Not that I have many piano forte recordings but one I like a lot is Andreas Steier's Schubert's Impromptus played on a 1996 Christopher Clarke Fortepiano copy of 1827 instrument by the Viennese maker Graf.
Certainly it's not a modern Steinway, but warm and atmospheric, this is a nice intimate recording. Slightly closed down and veiled but very little distortion through the frequency range and I think it has a realistic tonal colours and in-room presence to my ears. I was surprising that period instrument has this much bottom end. ( but then this is a replica so maybe they've improved some constructions here and there.)P.S. I just googled and Graf was Beethoven's last piano.
