Will a GB25 make a particular sound when it is blown or damaged?

The one set just sold but he wanted $300 so I figured $150 for one was fine and I wouldn’t have to keep an extra or try and sell one speaker.

I did. I pulled the whole pillar out of the other side and plugged it in and the noise wasn’t there.

Well done sir!
That is being thorough.

$150 for a single new is a good deal.

JCSaudio , I believe Andy was being helpful.

I definitely still consider myself a novice at least as far as this higher end stuff and more on the SQ side goes. I try my best to be thorough before I post. Sometimes I feel like that makes my posts too long and people don't read them though.

More than likely but that's one of the reasons people love Audiofrog.

91RS , any ideas or thoughts as to why it "makes noise" ?

[BigAl205]

Maybe the voice coil is rubbing?

I agree with vc scraping . Any idea as to why ?

[91RS]

The sound it makes does sound like what I'd imagine a scraping voice coil would sound like. I don't see that I clipped it at all since the amplifier was already setup before I even installed the speakers. I suppose it was either bad from the get go or it got damaged by the person I got it from or me by accident handling it.
