Hi Antares, I can offer a "test" if you wish. Take a dampher and deliberately mal adjust it to be very close to the string--now play the note. You will find the sound limited and not "open". Now return the dampher to a more normal setting. The power will be back. The same thing would be true if the hammer is checking *too close* to the string.
