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:

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

PVC cannot hold a magnetic charge, though compounds used may be magnetized so to the question is whether this happens with all lps or just one.
