Can anyone please tell me the configuration of treble damper felts in a Steinway M? That is, how many flat-trichord, flat-flat pairs, starting at the first unwrapped string #29 and going up to the highest damper #67. When I stripped the old dampers off I made a record of this to duplicate when installing new dampers, but lost my notes. Thanks. </FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=3 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="0"><BR>

Not counting the tenor bichords I install the tri-chord piece in the front and the flat in the back ar original. I run this configuration up to the plate strut or about note 54. Then continue on with flats front and back. Although I belive the original configurationof tri-chord front and flat on back may stop a bit before the strut I personally note that the damping is better on all Stwy Models by running the tri- flat combo all the way up to the cross over at the strut. As I recall many are close to this any way. Make sense?<BR>
