[QUOTE="FutsMHF, post: 8029686, member: 650702"] My Polk Audio db840DVC has been making this hissing/crackling noise for the past few months when no audio is even playing. When I go to inspect the sub it looks fine, the wires look fine, it seems to be connected correctly to the amp (a Dual XPE2700 400W 2-Channel) but my brother insists that I have it wired incorrectly and the woofer is trying to act as a speaker. It still hits real low bass with no problems it just sounds like a blown speaker and sounds like it's trying to play the wrong parts of the songs. Any suggestions? Could he be right and how do I fix it? [/QUOTE]
