I hope I'm not beating a dead horse but like I posted previously I find it hard to believe I am bottoming out these woofers with my 100wpc receiver. At this point I have my EQ set to flat, the only EQ I am using now is the loudness compensation on the receiver and that's it. Even so, at about 1/2 volume with the right music I still hear the voice coils hit the magnet occasionally. Is this normal for this woofer?
I removed both of them and looked at the spider assembly, it looks like the spider is a little bit sunken in when looking parallel to the magnet. I would guess perhaps a little less than 1/8". Both look the same. I am guessing the surrounds have been replaced at some point, they are attached behind the cone like they are supposed to be. It's just hard to believe they can't handle the power or have such a limited suspension travel.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Bob
