Okay guys I need your help, I am totally perplexed. On my previous thread about my new cabinet I described blowing my new Celestion gold. To re-cap, basically I was playing it through my 30 watt AC 30 amp and the thing went dead. Well not totally dead what actually happened was suddenly the volume was reduced by 95%. I hooked up another cabinet and made sure the amp was working well, reconnnected the celestion gold and still minimal volume. I assumed the speaker was toast. When I removed it from the cabinet I checked the solder joints, they were fine.
However when I pushed the cone I did not feel any rubbing. Today I measured it's resistance and it measured just over 6 ohms (expected for an 8 ohm speaker). I thought something is not right here so I wired it up and it has miraculously come back to life.
So I am open to explanations. Did celestion put some sort of safety heat cut off in the speaker??
