I searched your posts, but could not find anything where you indicate whether you are using a single speaker for your amplification.
If you are running a single speaker, and you are playing alone, the Royal Grand is the bomb. Full bass, pretty highs, and does not go quirky in the octave immediately below middle C. (weirdness in the octave below middle C is a problem for several of the other Nord acoustic piano sounds, when run with a single speaker).

Re: L or Xl?
I'm running either alesis elevate 3 mkII stereo monitors, and for earphones I use Shure se215. The royal grand sounds great in both, except the second D above middle C has this sort of metallic kinda sound, not sure how to explain it. I'm using royal grand in XL.

Re: L or Xl?
So - as I understand it the S, M, and L are identical apart from the string resonance. L has resonance across the whole keyboard range, M just has resonance in the middle octaves, and S not at all.
XL is a different multisample, with more individual notes sampled and resonance across the whole range.
You should think of there being two sample sizes (normal and XL) and with one of them you get a choice of string resonance.

Yes, I think that's a good way to look at it. At least when it comes to acoustic pianos. The differentiating characteristics of the EPs does not seem as clear. (There are S, M, L, and XL EPs, but not of the same models.)
