HI There, I once was required to tune a C7 which was nearly new and was used by Yamaha as one of the "touring" grands. The sound seem somewhat dead. I then discovered that the movers had wedged a moving strap (or pad) between the top of the beam and the soundboard. I removed the offending item and the sound immediately improved. (or maybe it was like those early voicing classes...) Regards, Don Rose RPT, drose@maple.net
