CECAA850 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Start by checking all wire connectors at the crossover. Loosen and tighten all screws. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 If all else fails to correct the problem without surgery, you may have to access the woofer itself and see if the wires are connected. Had a La Scala that had a wire come off the base speaker. Easy fix. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mboxler Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 It would be quicker the check DCR through the binding posts before "opening up the hatch". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Old tinsel leads frequently fail, a speaker repair shop can replace these without a re-cone. Eminence and CTS drivers can be repaired by the average person that can solder and glue. You will need soldering tools, solder, tinsel lead, new dust-cap, and glue.

minermark Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I use my painters 5 in 1 tool to carefully pry open the woofer door. Good luck, wear gloves so as not to cut yourself. Then you can check door feed-thru and woofer connections. Next test would be DCR of woofer with a VOM or equivalent. I have the same quite handy tool. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
