Hi
Is the arm gripping it fully after the song has played and then releasing it. Possible that lubrication is needed if the arm is not fully gripping it

Hate to sound like a grammar natzi, but they are called RECORDS, and WOOFERS (not "sub")

The "grip" on the record is spring loaded. It's a lube problem (or lack thereof). Check wiring on speakers.
