David:
For lighter pressure, replace the stock springs with Euph springs, and check out Art Hovey's website for a photo of how he solved the hand-span piston problem (can't remember the URL at the moment, but a search for "tuba logic" should get you there). There was also a lengthy discussion on the subject last year on this BBS.
The 2145 is a good horn. If ya love it & you're getting the sound you like, consider these inexpensive mods. They really work!
