    when you held your hand over the cooling vent hole  and it started making that weird noise

    the first thing that came to my mind was the dust cap was coming unglued somewhere

     letting air out from the preasure build up......it will make a clicking or clacking noise

     

     I would double check all the glued seems

     

      have only seen 2 woofers in my lifetime with a crooked cone job , it is possible

    but highly unlikely though , they no doubt use centering tools

     

     

     

      did that woofer make that noise from new ????

    strange....

     

    the only other things I can think of ...maybe you bottomed the sub out and damaged the bottom of the former

    over exertion can damage it too

     

     

    or the cone assembly is glued in crooked and making contact the pole piece

     

     

    I wish I could have a look at it....to bad it's only a 2,000 mile trip...LOL

    this wasn't making sense to me anymore so I re read the first post

    I kind of read it wrong  , I was thinking outside the box instead of inside...LOL

    I have mounted vented subs close to the rear wall with out problems

     

    it almost sounds like the aluminum former is tapping the pole piece or the magnet assembly

    I have seen that happen before...

     

    just for kicks make shure your access wire in the enclosure is not curled up and hitting the back of the cone

    I know it sounds weird....sometimes it will make a funny noise when the cone sucks in on certain frequencies

     

    if your just compressing with the cone in a confined space it can sometimes have weird effects to

    I try and have the cone diameter distance away from any wall...if I can't I found a way to combat it,

    ...I try and take advantage of the corner of the enclosure and wedge it , giving the sub more space to unload

     I have taken 2 weeks to break in  woofers and I have hammered them fresh out of the box

     

    hosestly I have noticed no difference except that the subs loosen up faster is you beet the shit out of them

     

    BUT....... I have ripped new  subs apart in -40c temperature , the surrounds were frozen and broke

    off the cones.... ... doubt you'll have that problem
