subs squeaking

[chrispy]

what could cause subs to squeak?

today i go to my trunk while they are playing and i hear some faint squeaking. at first i thought it was something inside of the trunk somewhere squeaking (which it may be, i dont know, i dont hear it inside but only when i put my head close to my subs)

but they arent blown and it was even at a low volume say 16/60.they shouldnt be clipping either

and also are subs supposed to get louder when the weather gets warmer?

idk if its just me but i did get a cold and when i went to listen to them, i turn them up and my rearview shakes 90 degrees to the side and down instead of just down like it did last week on the same song, same volume. or it could just been that my rear view becamse looser. they dont sound louder, they actually sound fainter to me, but i think my ears are a little plugged from being sick.

oh and since i moved my phase from 180 to 0 the subs are showing a ton more excursion. at 180 they moved 1/4 of an inch all the way up but now they move like 1/2-1 inch. is that normal or bad or what?

thanks

You have an air leak. Can be caused by a crack in the box, around your port if you're using tube ports, or a sub that's mounted off center.

time for new coil bearings

ok like boon said its prob a air leak. try a lil tape around where the sound is coming from to see if it goes away. if not move onto the next possibility

[raytard]

spray all the bearings down with wd-40, it should stop.

or seal all the airleaks, either way.

nahh, sounds more like muffler bearings to me. or blinker fluid.
