theminsky Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I love my wee combo but one of the speakers on the 2 x10 configuration started crackling at a gig yesterday. I noodled with the wire going from terminal to cone and it stopped but I fear it is temporary. If I have to replace the speaker, should I go the whole hog and get the neo light weight ? What is recommended to lighten the load and keep the quality of sound I have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Contact Eden and ask for their opinion would be mys suggestion. The theory is swapping cones is hit & miss, it can work, or it can really foul up, as there`s a lot of science involved in matching cones to cab size. That said, sometimes in theory it might not have worked, but to the ears it has, so that`s another annoying factor in the way, so get Edens advice - think as Marshall now own them it may be they who field such enquiries.

If comes to having to change a speaker(s), I agree but it sounds like it could just be a dry joint on the terminal block. A simple re-solder job.

theminsky Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thanks for this helpful stuff. I noodled with the terminal a little and the buzzing stopped. I applied a little clear varnish where the bare cable meets the cone and Saturday night playing to post-rugby party goers will be the acid test!
