The final resting spot for one of my subs is inches away from my turntable. Using REW to generate a sine wave at the problem room resonance mode frequency, I found a null by walking around with a decibel meter to where I will move my turntable. That is as much as I going to think about rack location.
Corner problem? RE: Rippling cones
Hey folks,
So after reading about and deciding to follow the advice from my previous post (Rippling cones) where I whined about seeing the cones in my speakers jumping around when playing vinyl,...
I decided to use a wall mount.
My room is set up with diagonal speaker placement very close to figure 2 at:
https://www.decware.com/paper14.htm
The left side of the turntable rack starts from where the number 5 is.
There is a closet door where number 6 is. Thought about moving the rack into the closet to mitigate the air borne vibrations. Not really practical but would be an interesting experiment.
I am still new to turntables. But it just occurred to me that a corner would be the worst place for a turntable.
Especially the one closest to both speakers.
Is there any truth this? Or am I just over thinking things?
I am convinced that wall mounting is my next step and would love to keep things where they are.
But, if corners are bad, I am open to other possible locations.
Thanks everyone!
