You said -My turntable is located in the corner of my room next to my right speaker and subwoofer. It isn't sitting on my subwoofer, but it's close. Both my subwoofer and turntable stand are spiked to a concrete slab underneath the carpet. Consequently, many records sound just fine, but some with heavy bass cause audible acoustic feedback. I get around this by copying vinyl to CD-R with my speakers turned off.
I'm questioning the veracity of your CD v. TT experiences with such a system.
You claim many records sound just fine, I suspect even the sound on these records is affected by acoustic feedback, though not obviously so. I don't see how you can expect do long term listening comparisons through speakers in this setup at all.
Give me rhythm or give me death!
