I never heard this on my smaller bookshelf speakers hooked up to the same rig, not even when turning good watts to it. Any ideas on what's happening?
The turntable is a Technics Quartz Direct Drive, cartridge = quite old 4-coil Stanton with a new stylus of the same maker. Do I have a bad cord somewhere, deteriorating cartridge, poor connection, or ??? I am currently using older 16-guage "speaker wire" but will switch to a new 14-gauge shortly.
This does not appear to be a speaker problem, but will appreciate any remarks and advice as to what's causing the resonating sound with the LP's.
