Second Opinion on Blown Amp
Second Opinion on Blown Amp
I've already got one opinion but would like more before I go spend any money.
Today I noticed a rattling coming from my driver's side rear (Bose) speaker. I decided to investigate, since it troubled me due to the fact that my rear deck has been deadened. But, during my investigation, I notice there is NO bass from the passenger's side rear speaker. There's sound, and plenty of it, but no bass to speak of. Tons of bass on the driver's side, though.
So what's the deal? Blown amp? Blown speaker? Both? If one of those is blown I'll just go buy another amp/speaker and install it and hopefully be done with it. Also, could the fact that only the one speaker is hitting with bass be the reason for the vibration?
Surprised they have put up with the 2 years of abuse so far

did you ever try touching the cone while the volume is up a bit?
im thinking the woofer might be seized, but sound is still kind of coming out of it, just no bass cus the cone is not physically moving.

It didn't SEEM distorted, but it was very, very quiet. Like, I could still hear the music, but it wasn't at the volume it was supposed to be (and of course no bass).

Seized, huh? What would cause it to seize?
