Forevrbumpn Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 common issue on that sub is the heat shrink from the lead slap's against the cone for a long time, and eventually the heat shrink has a long gap in it, with that gap, the lead slaps around like 4 times as much, causing more problems. The heat shrink is in this case on these subs a preventative measure for the leads slapping, but nothing lasts forever Look at your leads, see if you can see what I'am talking about I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
