    It does make sound, but it sounds more than a rattle to me than anything else.

    I wouldn’t be surprised it has no enclosure and cone looks like its glued to the top seems a bit unbalanced. But at least it’s producing some form of sound.

    Now isn’t that most suspicious!

    I’m sure someone has made a copy of the video for reference use?
