Hi to all!
A few days ago my sub stopped playing. I was listening to some music and all of a sudden my bass disappeared. I thought that the amp had switched off because my remote wire ain't that good and from time to time I have to fix it, but that wasn't the reason. The amp is working - lights come on, and the status LED is GREEN. I checked all connections and all seems to be OK but there is no sound coming out from the sub. Today I got the sub out of the box and tried measuring the resistance across the voice coils.... I couldn't measure anything - the meter says 0L (overload). Infinite resistance means "open circuit" and if that's the case then my sub's voice coils are dead - both of them.
A week ago I noticed that when the driver moves I can hear some screeching/grinding in it. That got me worried but since it was working and showed no other simptoms I thought nothing of it. This is still there - all I have to do is gently knock the "cone" and it starts "ringing".
I did some more measuring - I secured the meter's leads to the terminals of one of the coils and when I laid the sub on my bed (on it's face) one of the coils showed about 3ohms So, when I push the cone I get some resistance across a pair of the terminals.
I pretty much answered my question, I just wanted to know if there is anyone here who's had similar experience with their ED sub(s).
blue LEDz, I know you might be reading this so I'm gonna ask you a question - how should I proceed with ED? I know they have 3 years warranty, but what do I say to them (what shouldn't I tell them)?
