What's this sound, and why the distortion?

Hi!

Relatively new to REW, but I am having problems. I'm getting 40% distortion at 50Hz in this sweep of the fronts, and when I run the sweep there's a strange sound. I'll attach a short video. Is this my processor, the mic or REW?

It sounds like the woofers are bottoming out. Limit volume to 75 dB and rerun. If you still hear the clacking, start the sweep at 50 Hz, not 5 Hz.
