Turntable feedback rumble problems with new sub
@atmasphere Sounds like the media cabinet isn't doing its job. Can you hear foot falls when you walk past the turntable while its playing? Not really, but if the needle is on the record and you walk in front of the cabinet you can see the subwoofer flutter, so it’s definitely picking it up. It’s a wood floor. I don’t have anything under the cabinet legs, which are metal. |
If you have Isonoe it should be fine even if there is 10 000 Watt speakers near. Do not screw Isonoe tightly to the Technics cabinet you will kill its spring effect. It must be like this. Move your SUB somewhere (away from the turntable). |
@ronribbons I used to have that problem. I placed a set of bearings beneath the equipment stand, allowing it to be coupled to the floor, but otherwise able to move from side to side a little bit. This solved the footfall thing. I used Aurios Pro bearings https://www.musicdirect.com/vibration-control/aurios-pro-max-isolation-bearings-set-of-3But they are n/l/a. But you might be able to find something similar. |
I like the Idea of using granite, I went to the stone cutters place and when they make an area for a sink they have to cut out a big square piece of granite and then toss it out! I was able to get a nice size piece for the top of my stereo rack, it works very well at dampening all vibrations and resonances. |
Maybe put your subwoofers on isolation pads. I think you can buy most Auralex products on Amazon https://auralex.com/shop/iso-series/ |
