Rattling in speaker?

canman · **Rattling in speaker?**

I have a 99 Mustang Convertible, and it has the Mach stereo system installed in it. Whenever I turn the volume up more than like 3 notches, and ESPECIALLY whenever I turn the bass up, there is a rattling in the passenger door speaker whenever there is bass in the song. What could be the problem and how would I go about fixing it? Thanks

If its the speaker and not the plastic parts of the door etc... It would be a blown speaker... You would have to buy a new speaker to replace it.

Well, it might be the door panel rattling. Mine does. Not the factory speaker though.

Probably the surround rubber or foam that attaches the speaker frame to the cone pr the voice coil is toast. Moisture in the door usually rots the speaker

Alright, I'll have to look more into the problem to find out exactly what's rattling before I decide what to do next.

if you replace the speaker, do yourself a favor and replace all the speakers with good aftermarket speakers. you would be amazed at the difference.

i just took my subs out, and replaced them with a couple of fosgate 6x9s with ~ 125 watts going to each of those speakers. they sound a lot better than my factory speakers.
