I think I blew my sub

Mark Highland Gold Member Username: Rideredder Cornell, IL USA Post Number: 1185 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Thursday, December 13, 2007 - 05:05 GMT My sub ('06 WMD) started making a weird noise tonight, so I took it out and checked the coils. One still reads 2.2ohms, but the other one reads 6.9ohms.

It still performs but it makes a rattling noise. The coil still looks good, and isn't scraping or anything. It's wired to 1ohm but reads 2.3.

The sub started sounding alot worse than before, so I checked the coils again and saw this. One coil. Other coil. Putting pressure on the cone. Coil looks perfectly fine. How does just one coil go bad?
