Subwoofer Help

[royphil345]

I've had subs sound noisy in a sealed enclosure due to leaks. Also could be that you're just working it too hard or your amp is distorting. Also could be damage to other parts of the driver besides the voice coil wire. Bought a sub once where the cone was partially unglued from the damper (the cloth part in the rear that keeps dust out of the voice coil and helps to keep it centered). That made a rattling noise. Took me awhile to figure that one out. With the amount cone movement and air subs move... almost anything that isn't right will cause noises. Just keep looking, listening and experimenting. You should be able to figure it out.

Good luck!!!
