Hi Albert, When you say that you have EQ for the speakers, I assume it is a Linkwitz Transform type of device? Similar to my Marchand Bassis?Bob

Hi Albert, Thanks for the response. So you always use a clamp or weight with a mat? What do you think contributes most to dealing with subsonics and rumble? Or for that matter what causes this?

Hi Albert, I see that the Lenco and the Technics do not have any clamps or holddown of any sort. What are your thoughts on this? Do you have/use a 20hz filter or rumble filters? Bob
