Tuning your piano to A=432 would be counter to what Josef Goebbels of Nazi Germany would have wanted. It was Goebbels who set the standard to A=440. Bach's standard, a few hundred years previous, was 432. Whose standard do you want? Bach's? Or the Nazi's? Ask yourself-- why would the Nazi's have set A to 440?
