<< I find that I must lower the hammers all the
way down, firmly resting on the cushions, but that still only yields about
1.5" strike distance. I did bench regulate about a half an octave just to
see how it responded at the shortened SD, and it seemed perfectly fine, but
I'd like to get it to proper specs.>>

A Steinway that regulates properly with 1.5" of blow is a curiousity to me. 
 What sort of dip and let-off would you have?
