[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 81725, member: 30"] Re: strange subwoofer thingie It sounds like there is a broken connection somewhere. An ohm meter is your friend. Start at either end (speaker cable to amp-or loudspeaker driver) and measure the resistance between the + and - wires. Depending on the impedance-it will probably be between 3 and 8 ohms. If you read an open-simply keep going down the chain (towards the other end) until you get a low reading (or a high reading_ depending on which way you are going. That should point you right to the problem-broken wire-lose connection-bad crimp-broken connection and so forth. [/QUOTE]
