Steve et all,
Not his friend but have had this thumping problem since day 1 -- 
particularly with a low monitor level.
For some reason it is less objectionable with monitor level up higher.   
You might try turning the monitor level near zero and give it a listen.
Glad to see that Elecraft is finally going to address this. 
Nothing special in settings here.  No AFX,  no NR, no NB but narrow 
roofing filters (250 or 400 Hz) with DSP set anywhere between 150 Hz and 
400 Hz.
