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. Then I play the CD-Rs with all the bass and volume that I want, and they sound excellent without any hint of acoustic feedback. You might want to explore a similar option because there is simply no way you can have acceptable sound quality with your turntable near a subwoofer let along sitting on top of one.Good luck,
