Posted December 31, 200717 yr This is a new one to me.So it got cold here and I turned my car stereo on about a week ago. The right midrange in the kick sterted to make a static/crackling sound. I immediatly turned the radio off until I could check it over. I checked my wiring and everything is secure. I turned the radio back on and the problem is not there anymore. The speaker then worked and no static.Two weeks go by and its randomly doing it again. I am at a loss. Ive checked everything but the impedance of the driver. Who knows maybe its on its death bed. Squeak, you do warranties? lawl! J/KI love these Coustic speakers and really dont want to go through the hassle of finding another to replace.Anyways, anyone have any ideas?
December 31, 200717 yr Could be a bad connection within the RCA feeding that channel??Had that problem myself once, and that is what it was.
January 1, 200817 yr Author Update...Took the speaker out, Imp reads a steady 3.5 ohm so its not messed up.Checked the RCA's. They are Street wire zero noise 2.0. Connection is solid, very solid...No moisture present. While I was in tehre I added some polyfill that I had meaning to do for quite a while. I would have noticed it then.No visibly grounding out...Im at a loss...I just tuned the setup for 2 hours (cause one of my tard friends got button happy) No static...Guess its just a waiting game.
