[QUOTE="SimulatedZero, post: 8461799, member: 643373"] Alrighty then. So, in my random purusing of the interwebs, I found a video of a Skar ZVX with an issue that sounds like it might be what you're hearing. [MEDIA=youtube]srI87Q0xv0M[/MEDIA] I read, granted not very reputable, that this is a common problem for the ZVX line do to a spider slap issue. Looking at the design, it could also be the height of the round (odd choice for a high end woofer) tinsel leads that are sewn in. Another slight possibility is a non-linear throw causing the coil to actually impact the motor assembly. I doubt that one though. If the all of two comments on the video are any indicator, this may actually be a relatively common issue with this line. The hearsay is that it occurs starting at 14mm of excursion. I could see you hitting that with about 600 watts of power on lows note in a sealed set up. Just a thought. Let us know what you come up with. [/QUOTE]
