Hi Will,

If damping was improved with the new felt then likely you should continue on
with the other damper felts.  During the changeover, you may have
inadvertently changed the weight of the damper leavers (friction or actual
weight).  As a diagnostic tool, use squeeze split lead to add a little
weight to each damper wire and of course make sure you have plenty of
follow.  Hope this helps.
