| Subwoofer rumble issue Interesting. I’ve been considering upgrading my phono stage anyway. Maybe this is the excuse I need to pull the trigger. Thanks. | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue Yeah I’m not into the spring thing. Never gonna happen.The REL has a phase switch. 0 or 180. My system likes 180. Flit it to 0 while music is playing and the Sub rumbles uncontrollably. Earthquake time! I understand that a properly set up REL shou... | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue Never swapped cables. It was in the correct phase the whole time. When I switch the phase from it’s typical position all hell breaks loose | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue @geoffkait yes. It was in the correct phase | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue @kalali yep tried that. Nearly took the whole building down. Yikes! | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue George, Dan - thanks again for your insight and ideas on how I might go about resolving this! I did end up ordering a subsonic filter from KAN Electro Acoustics. Fingers crossed it at least help because relocating the turntable to another room jus... | |

| Subwoofer rumble issue Haha it’s absolutely a self serving move but it’s cool. Always be closing, right? I’ll consider the springs but we’ll see. Thx | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue I’m not finding nor have I heard of subwoofer springs. Do you have a link? | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue I will play around with isolation some more. Think I’ll focus on the sub first. I will look at picking up a test record as well. Thanks for the suggestions! | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue Thanks for all the reply’s and ideas, awesome! I’m running a Clear Audio Concept table and the sub is a REL T9i. They’re both very good products so the lack of quality materials in the turntable build is likely not the issue. I will do the stylus ... | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue George- I’ll give that a try when I get home tomorrow. Thank you | |
| Subwoofer rumble issue I hear ya on the isolation thing. It does rumble in between tracks. I do not run a CD player, just phono. I’ll keep playing with trying to reduce vibration. Hmmmm |
