sub clicking

[Better-Action 10+ year member]

Got a American bass xfl. Makes a clicking noise once it gets moving. Not a scratching noise. Can push cone up and down and all feels smooth, no noise at all. Can see the coil, still a bright copper color. Just as loud as it ever was.

Dust cap is firmly in place. Tinsels can't be slapping due to design. Can't put a dmm on it at the moment, garage burned down and my dmm is mia.

Any ideas?

Could be the cap over the coil. It's a secondary dust cap. Bob says or coils coming hitting the top of the former

So removing the dust cap would be the way to check this out right?

Bump. It sounds very mechanical. Not a soft or dull click.
