when i lsiten to my rap/rnb with heavy bass i hear this pop sound so does it mean one of my speakers went out or something?

 

Diddo here. And as for the speakers being out, thats not the case. I just changed mine today. and turned up the sound and the sub was popping. plus the sub is beautiful, looks brand new, but its 14 years old....but yeah, anyone got an idea on whats going on? Amp not able to handle higher power? or sub just cant? Or is it that wire mesh covering the sub bouncing up or down?

 

is it a loud high pitched pop or a lower toned pop?

 

heres a clip of what im getting.....if you dont like linkin park on you.

no-one knows?

 

in between, it only popped when the beat was reaaaaaaaaally bumpin`

 

Same here, it only pops on hard thumps, lighter ones it doesnt.

 

pretty much your sub is toasted, no real other way to put it, that is the sound of your sub bottoming out

 

But what part of it is destroyed is what i cant see, cause the diaphram is in perfect condition, and when i look below it the sub looks good too? Is there a distinct spot i can look to make sure what you say is correct or is it something internal?

 

the surround itself is very weak, and has become "loose" after many years of playing.

 

Ahh thanks i might be changing soon....yay more money to spend

 

so not speakers right?

cause ive been planning to upgrade to 2 12s anyways

 

Yep its not the speakers

If they are the original it wont hurt to check them just incase, cause the diaphrams on them might be torn

 

lol ur so correct, more money to spend, my wallets gonna feel the pain, blah im 17, i really need a frikin job, i think i can afford the subs only right now, need to save up for amp lol

 

diddo on the teenager here too 19....best advice....get the sub. and as long as the speakers still sound good dont change em...however when i checked mine 3/4 were dead. I got 4 mb quart discus' for 104 total shipped. many say they suck, but i like em sounds pretty good.
