Why do my bass drivers shake violently listening to vinyl

@audionoobie If you're thinking about upgrading the feet, I recommend the feet from MNPCTECH - 

They're a little pricey, but it was probably the best upgrade I have made to my SL 1200 MK2.

"The woofer flapping issue is prevalent among people with small woofers that are tuned to go as low as possible. They have to move a lot farther to produce the same results as a large woofer." Only if the bass response is artificially boosted, as in your system. Otherwise, the smaller woofer will just roll off at a higher frequency than a bigger woofer. It’s even possible in some cases that the smaller woofer will be less likely to dance due to upstream perturbation, both because the smaller woofer can't respond and because of the enclosure damping, as in an acoustic suspension cabinet. This was mentioned earlier.

"Once digitized it is a simple matter to program in a subsonic filter with a very steep slope sidestepping the issue altogether." There is no free lunch in audio; fiddling with the signal in the digital domain will have a cost in SQ that some would not tolerate and others would find OK. Anyway, if one wants a subwoofer system, one can build an active low pass filter with a 24-db/octave slope out of discrete components that work in the analog domain, with potentially less of a sonic penalty. 24db/octave should be sufficient for cleaning up the higher frequencies.

Dear  @audionoobie  : " anyone know if there would be a compliance issue with my AT VM760SLC mounted on the stock Technics SL1200GR arm? ""

No, you have not is inside the normal resonance frequency range. You can improve the quality reproduced sound with better headshell wires connectors and you can try too a different headshell build material than the stock one but you are safe about cartridge/tonearm issues.

Good that the KAB filter works for you.

It is always 10" or below and always with turntables. With many amps going clear down to DC surface irregularities in the vinyl will cause the woofers to flap.

@mijostyn Back in the old days I used to run some Fried G2s which had a 10" IIRC and had no woofer issues. But you are correct- smaller drivers will flop about without much provocation.

Dear @lewm  : You are rigth in all your last post.
