to check if their blown just push up & down on the cone. listen for the crackel sound..  maybe only one is messed up.. if u want to get it fixed.. its gonna cost you an arm & a leg.. better to just buy new ones.. but if u want to get it fixed got to knetic sound on fraser street near kingedward in Vancouver

why couldnt you put "subs" at the end of your title, i mean its only 4 letters, would it really be so hard to type?  The title is not meant to be part of your first sentence, it is meant to be a summary of what your topic is, it should not be vague, save the guessing games for revscene

Darn Flavian started a trend!  Actually, what I do is if I need to guess at the title, I don't read the thread...

I have edited the subject to make Troy happy.  Actually, he has a very good point.

Jeff, if you end up needing new subs, I have two 10 inch MTX's for sale.  You can even come over and hook them up in your car to see how they sound.  They are currently doubling as a shoe rack for Michelle...  I sold my amp so they aren't going back into my car.

Exactly the point, you should only want the people who can/are willing to help to look at your thread, otherwise you're wasting everyone elses time.  If we wanted to decide whether we can/want to help in a topic after reading the whole post, titles wouldnt exist. However, they do exist so use them and help us help you.

Also by making it vague, you're likely alienating some of those people that could help but refuse to look at a vaguely marked topic.

In short, please try not to waste anybody's time.
