Usually, it's a sign that key height is low when let-off can't be felt... Increase the key height and let-off gives you a nice "thump" when the key is depressed slowly. Other Kimballs have had that thump on let-off. This is the first one to behave like this. It plays, but it does not have the same overall feel that other painos have. -- Frank Cahill Associate Member, Piano Technicians Guild Northern Va
