blown speaker

First timer here. Looking for assistance... I have an Ampeg 610HLF. The bottom left speaker (when looking at it) completely blew, torn all the way around the outer part of the cone. Replaced it with an identical speaker (Eminence 6 ohm). Unfortunately, the new one still sounds blown and...

"When the world is running down, we make the best of what's still around..." Sting So I'm broke ass broke and still have a ton of bass toys. Can't get anything more, can't get anything fixed. Playing my Mesa Boogie Bass 400+ through a Schroeder BMF 212 with the top 12 driver blown. Is it nuts...

Just like the title says: can you physically see if you have a blown speaker? What do you look for and is it something you can do without opening a cabinet/enclosure? Is there a fool-proof way to determine if a speaker is blown?

I just spent about an hour trying to find a solid answer for my problem. I have an ampeg 410he (I believe it’s late 2000s) with a blown speaker. I also have an SWR workingman 410 with all 4 healthy speakers. My question is this.. Can I replace the one busted ampeg speaker with one from my swr...

I've been reading a bunch about amps and trying to learn more. I had some time today to plug in and mess around with my rig and realized that I always forget that it's not as solid as I may think it is. Playing by myself with my L-1000 into the amp without pedals, there's a lot of buzz, which...

I have 2 SWR Goliath III 4x10 bass cabinets. I run them with an SWR 750x head. At performance volume, I have noticed they both have a buzzing sound. How do I identify a blown speaker(s)? If 1 or more speakers are blown, can I just remove the good speakers from cab 1 and put them in the other?

I'm not sure if there's already a thread on here for possible speaker cab problems. I have an Aguilar SL 112 that just started making a buzzing sound when I play it. I have it paired with the Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 amp. I also run a Radial ToneBone with it when I double upright bass and...

Ah, if only it sounded as good as it looks. Well, it does, about half the time; but more and more often, the upper speaker (Peavey 115 BX w/Scorpion) loses a lot of volume and distorts (in a bad way). When the top speaker has trouble, the bottom speaker sounds just like it usually does (though...

Hi there. I'm in some deep despair at the moment so I thought I'd make a post and see if this would sound familiar to anyone. Flashback a few months ago. I have some money saved up and decide adding a tube amp to my Sunn Concert Bass would be a good idea. I check my craigslist for any SVTs, all...

I need some wisdom here people. My current setup is a darkglass alpha omega into a fender bassman 410 of unknown age. Yes, I know the amp far outclasses the cab, but I wanted a lighter amp head and that's the one I liked. Now, I think the speakers in the cab are worn out. They make some...

tl;dr - Needs at least 6 speakers, body in rough shape. What do I do with this thing?? I have this cabinet in my basement. Here's the rundown: -Bought it in 2006 on Craigslist for $375. It's an older model (70s I think) that has the single input jack plate. It was missing 2 speakers at the...

Hey All- This may be a totally noob kinda question, but here's the situation: I acquired a Fender Bassman 1x15 cab and had always assumed that the speaker had fried (due to the fried sound). It is a JBL D-130F 8 ohm that had been re-coned. Well I just bought a used Peavey Black Widow 1505-8...

I haven’t played my setup in a long time. 7 years, maybe. It was my regular gigging amp for 8 years of constant shows and practice. During the last show I played with it, the ground prong broke on the power supply, and my band wasn’t going to play again, so the stuff went in my closet until 3...

I replaced the top left speaker after it blew and now 3 of the four speakers work. This speaker has a positive and negative wire coming from the speaker input jack and I made sure the wires were hooked up to the correct... "attachment" on the speaker itself, not sure the name. Could it be a bad...

Ok so after a slew of responses to my other thread on tone (and having my rig checked again) I've come to the conclusion that my beloved eden d212xlt has a blown speaker. I replaced one speaker with an eminence delta 12a back in January but should have listened to my tech and swapped out both...

Hey there, this is my first post on here. So what I've got is a Hartke 115xl and the Hartke 2x10xl. Both cabinets are blown and have been sitting for years. I tested them out, they still make sound but are really messed up sounding. I know I can probably fix them up or replace them, But I'd like...

It sort of seems like Eden day around here today. So here's another post. I have a lovely old (1998) Eden D410XLT 8 ohm cab and one of the speakers is blown. 12 years ago or so I had blown one, sent it in to Eden and they reconed it for me. I can't even find anyone to that these days...

gotta 410 gallien krueger glx cab from a pawn shop and it had a blown speaker. i want to replace the blown speaker but i cant find one online. does anyone know where to get one, or another speaker that would be compatible so i can just pop it in there

Bass was gifted to me 9 months ago. And a few weeks ago went through rehearsal just fine but noticed that I couldn't hear it while playing during church service. I got busy and didn't have time to practice and didn't play a couple Sundays. So I didn't realize something was wrong and I completely...

I have an 8x10 ampeg cab and blew one of my 10 inch speakers. What's the best way to go about replacing the speaker? DIY remedy? What is the cost of taking it into a shop here in Los angeles? Curious as to the contrast cost wise of doing it myself and taking it in. Replacement speaker...

1st post on this web site, tho I’ve read a lot of different threads from other bassists that have been very helpful to me. So thanks to everyone in advance! I have to mention: I am not a hardcore gear head nor do I have a lot of technical knowledge so dumbing down your responses would be...

Hi Players, I never thought it would happen, but I've got and issue with my MarkBass rig. I've thrown it down stairs, run over it, shot it with a .50 and have never had one problem! Okay, not really, but it's been solid gear thus far. I bought both a 121P combo and a 121H rear-ported extension...

Hi Players, I usually creep, but surprisingly I think this is my first post. Apologies. I never thought it would happen, but I've got and issue with my MarkBass rig. I've thrown it down stairs, run over it, shot it with a .50 and have never had one problem! Okay, not really, but it's been...

Hey all - One of the speakers in my Fender NEO 4x10 has blown. I need to purchase a replacement speaker. Anyone know where I can buy a "Fender® Special Design Eminence® Neodymium 10”" for this model? I'm not seeing any pages that sell that particular model. Is there another speaker that I can...

Hi everyone, I recently picked up an Ampeg 8x10e bass cab to voice my Fender Bassman 100 and noticed a problem.... Unsure if one of the speakers is blown or damaged (possibly because it is used and old) sounding muddy and slightly rattling I want to know if I need to replace some of the...

I have been running a Gailen Kruger Backline 600 into a beater ampeg 1510 cab...got less than $150 tied up in the whole rig... Anyway... I need to reload it with new speaker... I want a final load of 4 ohm. Please recommend me some speakers... also where should I go to buy them? The 1510 has...

Hello I play with Aguilar for almost 10 years, DB 750+ 2X112, killer ! I recently bought an Ag DB 410 (4ohms) + DB 751...I should i have tried it loader when i tested it the first time because the 4 speakers were blown, still working but buzzing' and fartind when i played with a drumer (for...

Hey everyone, So I am almost certain that I have blown the lower speaker in my MB210-ii. I checked on GK's online store for replacement speakers and they are $104 each. Now I am no expert on speakers or anything but I was wondering if anyone here knew a place where I could find them cheaper...

I have a 6 month old Subway 112 cab that just blew its speaker. I never crank the volume ,bass or use distortion and usually use a compressor( to catch loud transients for slap etc ) but I guess I pushed it too hard ?? Don't see replacements on Mesa site? Anyone have suggestions for perhaps a...

I'm in the middle of a gig and it sounds like i'm hitting a compressor hard. My soft plucks are nigh inaudible, and my hard plucks just bottom out. I don't know if it's the speaker or the amp. My Orange Terror Bass i've had for 6 years, and i've never replaced the preamp tubes. Could that do it...

Blown speaker!!! Pickup only These are great cabinets, I have 2 now so I'm getting rid of the broken one. The D115XLT is a tuned and ported professional cabinet with a fast responding 15" speaker. It offers a classic rounded tone with great detail and response, coupled with a high...

Situation: Fender Bassman 100 solid state combo amp. MXR Octave pedal (not using battery, using adaptor), G&L L-1500 bass. I plugged everything in, turn amp on with bass volume off, and the amp makes a loud rumble noise and I see the speaker bouncing hard up and down. I unplug the cable...

I have 2.5 cubic foot box with a 3.5" port about 6 inches long, with a Delta Light 2512 in it. I did a pickup gig with an extremely loud band and used it on one side of an Eden WT500. Had another cab on the other side. Both boxes are 8 ohm The amp rates 175w@8ohm in stereo mode, so that's what...
