Pioneer SX-1050 speaker problems


Hi,

total noob here. I recently purchased a pioneer sx-1050. I have an Audio Technica AT-LP120 and DALI Zensor 3 speakers. The receiver is in great condition and sounds fantastic. However, at higher volumes (especially if I have the bass positive) the cones on the speakers vibrate crazily. 

I have tried reconnecting the speakers. I have also tried an external pre-amp but if I turn up the bass even a little (I like heavy bass) then at higher volume the speakers have a fit. I presume I am doing something stupid. Any ideas?

thanks for the responses. I think the speakers will have to find a new more suitable home and I will be looking for  something more robust.
Invaluable advice here. I have been looking at Pioneer Hpm-100s as a solution and this now confirms what I need to do. Stellar community here!
