I USE to have the same problem with a piano of a different make..mine being a Kawai GE-1. You suggested modifying the action for less power...do it (let-off)..and after you're done, lower the hammerline just a tad. Also, I suggest you check the Damper tray flanges..you may have a "damper pedal time keeper" on your hands. it worked for me. roo(k)
