-------------------------
The midwest had a nice little cold snap last month and this is what it did to my Hertz Milles. The surround froze solid. Cracked the cone. Ripped the surround. Separated the surround from the cone...

+1 for buying authorized:)

 
Im sorry dude, those are frickin expensive. Good luck with that
its not a big deal, i already got special "re-engineered" mids sent directly from italy to my dealer. They claim that they used a different surround material that doesnt freeze. I put the new ones in the freezer a couple of hours ago and im going to see if they do the same thing before i install them.

 
glad you were smart and paid for the warranty:)
me too!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Edit: warranty covered it? Shit, I wonder what mine covers (if I have one, just got some 8" hertz woofers today)
yup, this is actually the second time this has happened! this time the had the hertz rep come to the shop to show him the freezing problem.

 
That sucks if purchased from non dealer or the warranty already expired. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif This is the first time I heard this problem speakers frozen. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif makes me wanna think twice before buying Hertz speakers.

 
you must of been a little rough on them tho when it was like -25 out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
that is a NICE CAMERA. what kind u have??
Canon EOS Rebel XS with the kit lens

hmm. that sucks. I haven't had any temperature problems w/ my hsk's. But then again houston weather sucks balls. Always hot. Its February and its 65 outside.
i would kill for that!

wow, those are fvcked. Did that all happen merely from them being frozen, or did playing them while they were frozen solid cause that?
well, you cant really even tell when you start your car that anything is wrong so you go driving along happily listening to music and after a while you start to hear a VERY faint rattle. It sounds like something in the door or the panel so i didnt think anything of it. It then later turns into a nice and loud slapping noise:laugh:
