Hamburg Damper Felts

Just finished installing a new set of damper felts on the Hamburg D here.
I'm just not happy with the quality of the Hamburg damper felts from
Steinway these days. Anyone else tire of fighting with these to get them
to work? The bichords seem to be thicker, leaving the damper heads higher
than their neighbors. Even using a piece of yarn in the trichords that
leak through, they still work only with a great deal of fussing and
cussing!*#@

Anyone find a better supplier of damper felts?
