Re: Speaker Help Please

Could have something to do with the head unit's amps being spec'd for 4 ohm speakers and the kappas are 2 ohm speakers. You could be overloading the head unit's output amplifiers.

Or you could have defective speakers. (Are Infinitys now made in China?) If you have a woofer voice-coil interference problem, you should be able to manually press on the woofer with 2 fingers, one on each side, for balance, and you should be able to move the woofer cone in and out without feeling any voice coil rubbing. But if you feel rubbing, this will be audible when playing sound through the speaker.

As you push (lightly), you'll get a sense of whether the voice coil is maybe off center, by changing the way you push, push slightly harder on one side relative to the other, and if that works better (eliminates the rubbing), your woofer's voice coil is off center relative to the woofer cone. If it's off center, its a defective speaker. Happens more than you'd think.
