yes it is the subsonic effect, did you use a test disc to check if the cartridge is compatible with the tonearm to achieve an optimal resonant frequency?
Turntable rumble: what causes it?
Noticed in my second system that the mid/woofer's of my 2 way Joseph Audio Pulsar 2's sometimes appear to be quivering during vinyl playback. I do not hear anything but I can SEE the driver's moving. Does not happen with digital.
Is this evidence of "rumble"?
Wondering if the etiology is the turntable itself (maybe the bearing or motor noise) or whether floor or room vibration is reaching the table externally? The turntable otherwise operates silently, as best I can tell.
My turntable is a Pioneer PL600 (vintage) on which is mounted a Hana EL cartridge. Amplifier is a Pass XA 25. Preamp is a Classe Audio DR 5 (which does not feature a rumble filter BTW).
Thanks.
