Steinway repetition

	Has anyone had serious problems with getting new Steinways to work
well on fast repetition? I've seen this problem, (and heard of others) on
new D's from the last few years. The problem arises when the hammer "felt"
gets caught on the back-check and freezes.  I'm suspicious of the action
geometry, particularly hammers over-striking, and stack height. Any info
would be appreciated.
