Dave A Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 OK with a red face I will proceed and perhaps I can help someone out. I had a crackle in heavy bass songs on a pair of Fortes I had just reworked. I had ohmed and frequency swept all drivers while re-capping the crossovers. All was well I thought until I played them. I eliminated all possibilities of everything except one speaker. The woofer had a screw stuck to the magnet and all screws were accounted for visibly so I must have picked one up from my workbench somehow. When volume reached a certain level the crackle would begin. All is well and the errant screw is in the toolbox where it belongs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave A Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Me to. It is hard to imagine something like a screw could vibrate hard enough to be very audible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
