| Lyra Atlas experiences Thank you bpoletti, very interesting. I still have my Clavis DC on the loft, and should probably take it down to test it for woofer pumping. I dont remember much pumping in the years when I used this now well worn cart, but that was with a differe... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? Channel imbalance in woofer pumping? No. Mystery resolved. It turns out that one of the driver tubes in the left channel amp was going bad - at first, just weaker sound (and less pumping), but after plugging in the ASR and going back and forth to ... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences Have others experienced subsonic woofer pumping with the Atlas or other Lyra carts? If the answer is no, just a little, or yes - what tonearm do you use? Symptom: you see the woofer cone move in and out, even if you don’t hear anything, playing vi... | |
| Vinyl recordings - best methods dgarretson - thank you, I will study this. I am not able to do it myself but maybe I can find a tech who can. By the way, as related in another thread here ("Why are my woofers pumping?"), my cart/arm combo has too low resonance, resulting in subs... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? I am back to square one. Invictus005 was right: "There’s nothing you can do. It's normal. .. Just live with it and when the stylus wears out get something else." | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? I disconnected the Aesthetix Io, and connected the ASR mini basis mk2. Playing Pink Floyd Echoes once more. Result? Very similar behavior. Subsonic pumping, strongest in the right channel. Even if the ASR has far less deep grunt in the bass compar... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? Thanks tkr - but I live in Oslo.Thinking about the problem, I thought: maybe it is related to the Telefunken NOS tubes I use in the super sensitive first gain stage of the Aesthetix Io. So I pulled it halfway out of the shelf, enough to get off th... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? Thank you for your patience and help my friends.Handymann - hire an exorcist – indeed !! I played Crime of the century (Mofi version). Woofer pumping between tracks – yes, some. Much energetic woofer vibration in the loud parts of the music - yes.... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? Yes I will tell, once I find the culprit. The subsonic pumping does not occur with CDs, only vinyl. It does occur when I play digital recordings (rips) of my vinyl. Since these were made with zero speaker volume, acoustic feedback is unlikely. As ... | |
| Replacing my Krell FPB 600 amp with a tube amp I also remember the Nautilus, a bit cold and analytical yes - I preferred the Dynaudios for that reason. But I felt it was the speakers mainly not the amp. | |
| Replacing my Krell FPB 600 amp with a tube amp Almarg - I was not trying to say that the B&Ws are a good match with the Atma amps - most probably not - the OP would have to change speakers in that case. I agree, the zero autoformers is a useful add-on, but again, only if you don’t have an ... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? "The highlighted noise on the LP playback, approximately 7 Hz, is absent on the CD. By the way, the very low frequency noise was present on every LP I played for this test: from new pristine vinyl to older worn LPs with more clicks and crackle... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? Dear Raul, thanks!1)The speaker system is Audiokinesis, Dream Makers in front, plus LCS speakers firing towards the roof, in the back of the fronts. Similar to this one (but in much nicer light wood):http://www.audiokinesis.com/dream-maker-lcs.htm... | |
| Replacing my Krell FPB 600 amp with a tube amp Maybe I am wrong, no expert here, but my impression is that the B&W Matrix 800s are quite a difficult load - or at least, that owners have long been looking for the best ways to get an optimal amp match...On paper, the Krell FPB 600 should ... | |
| Replacing my Krell FPB 600 amp with a tube amp Note: my version of the amp does not make it clear when it shifts into class A; the nearest I could get was to feel the heat on the top plate. As soon as I turned the volume up with the Dynaudio speakers, the top plate turned hot, playing loud, ve... |
