So Weird- No Stylus Contact Woofer Pumping with Hana ML and Elac PPA-2


I observed the weirdest thing I have ever seen in audio. With the cartridge positioned above the record, tone arm locked up and platter spinning, the woofers were pumping on my system. I googled every permutation of query I could think of but came back with no hits. That’s when I decided to video the problem- link below:

Mystery Woofer Pumping

I could type out all the details but the video pretty much covers everything. I thought ya’ll might be interested in this.

I also have a Hana ML cartridge and I do have woofer pumping but only when the needle is in the groove. Do you have that issue as well?  I eventually installed a KAB subsonic filter and all is good. Just wondering if you found some other way to address that.
