Speaker help needed - Cameron UK - 24:th-Oct-2014
[MENTION=2]tucpal[/MENTION] fitted a new centre dash speaker (the one where the alarm is) about a month ago, it was all perfect until yesterday it started vibrating and distorting. I thought it might be loose to retightened it but it's still happening.
I took the speaker out and held it, it still happens. It's when there is any Base to the speaker, when it moves up and down, hopefully u can hear it on the video below!
Please help

turn your bass down a bit to have lots of bass you really need an amp and a sub woofer, remember your car is just that it's not a mobile disco

It was fine until a few days ago, Base isn't turned up high,
Speaker help needed - tucpal - 24:th-Oct-2014
it is the type of music you play
but turning the volume and bass up to much will do the speakers no favors at all
it has gone i can see it is hardly moving like it should
it will need to be replaced mate there cheep enough
and i have had no problems with my one
and i am still very impressed with it.

it should be working like this
and i still think this is a massive improvement over the standard one by 100%.
the sound is 100% better in real life also
if it is any consultation i also blew the origanl center speaker last year and excessive volume was the reason

Not sure of the difference the wattage will make but it's higher?! Lol
Speaker help needed - tucpal - 25:th-Oct-2014
they will work but the wattage is only as powerful as the amp can put out so speaker wattage is not that important
but ohm and frequency are important
i had the coaxial 3.5 alpine in the center with the tweeter
and it really does the sound no favors at all up front on the bash
three tweeters up front just lost all the bass and gave too much treble in my opinion
i took it out and replaced for the above boss one with no tweeter
and the sound was and is much better now.
the coaxial i have in the doors work well but 2 tweeters up front is more than enough
