Maybe I'm out of my league here, but...

It's been proven that the magnetic field shifts if there's a presence of mechanical vibration which means it will create a slight intermittent non-contact on the tape heads, thus resulting in distortion and other sound anomalies. You won't be able to eliminate it completely but you can certainly mitigate its effect by designing better head transport thus increasing its smooth and constant contact operation on the tape heads.
