| Why do my bass drivers shake violently listening to vinyl FYI: Japanese cartridge specs are rated at 100hz not 10hz. You have to multiply by 1.7 and the resonance frequency is not 11.12 it is 8.53. That is a fine figure and will not cause the problem of woofer pumping! | |

| Alternatives to B&W 805 D4 You should give Harbeth and Spendor a listen. Both make fine standmount type of speakers. You should have no problem finding a dealer up in your neck of the woods. BTW, I am not a fan of B&W but that’s just my taste!https://harbeth.co.uk/ Spen... | |
