Replace cone or change whole set. BEhringer 4x10 with trace

[THIRSTYGUMS]

my aluminium cone in my behringer 4x10 is making buzzing noises, where would i get a replacement or is it worth ripping them all out and putting some different cones in?
im an amp newb im afraid. all opinions welcome

[staindbass]

first figure out how many speakers are doing the buzzing. if its just one i would get a replacement. write the company en email and ask where to get the same one.

You would do just as well to find another cab, almost any other 4 X 10 cab.
I have heard the holes the behringer drivers fit through are too small for most replacement 10" drivers.
Cutting this compressed board material is a nightmare, I know thoman do replacement behringer drivers.

I have seen new ones for sale on ebay once in a while. I bought four 10" last year.

If you're the original owner, I suggest contacting Behringer and requesting a replacement. I've heard that they will not charge you.

No downside to asking.

^This.

Or if You bought the cab from Thomann, they have a 3 year warranty.

Hard to imagine the cab lasted buzz-free for longer than that .

Unless You're planning to make a DIY 410 and just want to try modelling some speakers for real in any enclosure, I wouldn't recommend using the Behringer cab to house any other speakers than the ones it came with.

If you have no luck with the manufacturer...I have a couple kicking around. The speakers are made by Bugera exclusively for behringer.

and how about, in the mean time, i just disconnect the offending speaker and use it 3x10?

In that case, assuming an SS amp obviously, connect the remaining three in series, or if the amps lowest impedance allows, in parallell. And do remove the faulty speaker and block the cut-out.

With a tube amp, DON'T DO IT.

That will lead to reduced volume and power handling though, so good chances are that You'll blow the rest of them as well.
