A Meyer & Weber grand's damper felts in the low bass are too wide,
are rubbing against each other and preventing themselves from seating
properly. I can only think of "giving them a trim" with the
dremel. Before I do this, are there better alternatives?<br>

See which parts of the damper felts rub together. If it is just the
expanded flares then possibly only<br>
the bass side of each damper needs to be trimmed with a pair of scissors.
Trimming the bass<br>
side is not as noticeable as trimming treble side. Neatness counts.<br>
<br>
Make certain that their travel is correct.<br>
<br>
While they are out, polish the damper wire.<br>
