When I power on my Hr824 mk1s my woofer pushes out and gets stuck. The speaker still sounds fine and is not blown, just seems to get pushed out and stuck when I power on, when I power off it goes back to normal. Also after being on it is becoming hotter then usual. I have had them for a year and never had a issue.

SOURCE: MACKIE SWA1801--Sound quality is not same

Hi,
First, Try the "defective" woofer in the cabinet that works well to be sure the woofer is OK.
If the woofer sounds good in the other cab, look to the power amplifier board : you have to test 2 fuses and 2 transistors witch are connected to the fuses : a defective transistor let your subwoofer work fine to half power, but distortion appear if you push away...

SOURCE: M-Audio StudioPhile DX4 4'' Woofer

The "voice coil" inside the woofer must be rubbing against the "yolk" plate. Meaning = it is mechanically blown(damaged) to a point but electrically intact.
My sugesstion is to take out the damaged woofer and "google" for a mew woofer with the correct impendance and size and mounting holes. If you dont know thw impendance, then you should go with at least 8 ohms. More ohms = less risk of overloading the amp. whick can cause a fire!

Good Luck!!

SOURCE: what is a suitable gale gold woofer replacement?

Really does not matter the point is you can rebuild the woofer for less then replacing with a new one but to each his own on this. But as long as its the same size anything would do for this monitor speaker.

I do not mean to sound generic but its true a woofer is a woofer it is what it is sure there are brands out there but they all work basically the same.

All your doing is buying the name.

Thanks please do click the thumbs above to give me a postive rating for my efforts today,

SOURCE: I have a pair of

On the back of the speaker are six deep holes that screws the back panel to front baffle.There are six sponge plugs normally.You have to dig these out with
a long standard screwdriver or however you can get them out to expose the 6 Phillips head screws below them.Remove the 6 Phillips head screws and the whole speaker comes apart,leaving just the box.Good luck.

Insignia ns ht51 subwoofer the speaker is vibrating but with no sound i believe it is the fuse, if so which fuse do i need

If the fuse had blown the sub woofer would be dead. I think you have a very low frequency oscillation problem . Now the frequency is so low ( below 15Hz ) one cannot hear it but if you look at the sub woofer speaker it will be pushing like a piston - to and fro very powerfully.
You will need professional help on this one.

Stuck in protect mode. reset not fixing it

look for crosses/shorted speaker wires, particyularly, look for loose strands at the ends of the speaker cables to ensure that they are not crossed and shorting the amp out.

if the cables are fine, then check the speakers to see if they are blown. you should be able to gently push the cone of the woofer(s) (the biggest, bass speakers) in gently with your hand for about an inch, with no resistance, before it bottoms out. if there is any resistance while the cone is moving downward, like a scratching or a rubbing inside the speaker, then your vioce coils are fried, causing a short circuit and throwing off the "protect" light.

to test the tweeters (smaller, high frequency speakers) for damage to the voice coils, disconnect them completely from the rest of the speaker, and see if that doesnt cause "protect" to go off. you can also push in on tweeters, but they wont "give" as much as woofers, making it hard to tell if there is any resistance going on inside.

if the problem is not with the speaker wiring or the speakers themselves, then the amp is broken.

My sub woofer will stop working if i put the bass up to loud, ill have to turn my car off and on to get it to work again. What could be the problem?

Seems like your power amp for the sub woofer may be going into protect mode/thermal overload when you push the volume too much. Therefore it shuts down. I am surprised the speaker hasn't blown yet.

As far as turning car off/on to get it to work, it's as if your car is the power switch.

Amp and speakers may not be wired correctly, as you want to make sure your amp/speaker ohm measurements are within a specific range for the amp and speakers work together properly. You may have it wired for a 2 ohm load, and maybe your amp can't do 2 ohms all day long.

Lost Speaker Sound

It does sound like a connector issue, don't you think?

What happens if you DON"T touch the connector but move the volume control on the controller?

Have you tried looking outward toward the source?

Sub-woofer driver rattle/buzz.

Bad news! It sounds like the coil is rubbing inside the magnet of the speaker! There's no cure, when the cone is warped it it knackers it up. Had the same problem some years ago with a Wharfedale speaker. Someone told me you can hit it on the part where the cone joins the magnet -with a hammer!
Anyway it didn't make a bit of difference! And the speaker was chucked.

I HAVE A NEW AMP AND SPEAKERS, AND THEY DONT SOUND ANY DIFFERENT.

if you dont have a crossover you will not get the best performance out of your sub. you need to seperate the frequencies and send only the lows to the sub woffers.
