Very interesting. When I had plucked the front duplexes in the past it was 
with the dampers down, trying to verify that my mod to the angle of the 
strings had killed any unplesant noise. Never thought to listen in a 
different way.

Very much so. Mass-excursion is the answer.
The rear duplexes certainly have more access to the soundboard as opposed to 
the front duplexes but I do not believe that was the point of your 
comparison. Your point is well taken.
Thank you
