Re: What's wrong with my speakers? (sound clip)
What amp and speakers? Sometimes, harmonically rich amps will drive a certain frequency real hard, making a speaker do that thing called "cone cry." It's where that frequency buckles the speaker. I notice it most on D or B single notes. Your clip sounds bad, tho. I'd try another cab, or check the wiring that the amp is plugged into. I've had weird sounds like that when an "almost ground loop" is happening with pedals or cables.Originally posted by Boogie BillI've got 60 guitars...but 49 trumpets is just...INSANITY! WTF!

I am by no means extreemly knowledgeable about speakers, but the first thing that comes to mind when I heard your clip was a speaker cone just starting to seperate.'06 Gibson R8, '94 Gibson LP Jr Special, Fender CS Dirty Dozen Strat, Fender Hotrod '52 Tele, /13 FTR37, Kemper, DrZ EMS, DrZ Plus, Various pedals

UPDATE: I tried the Shiva with a 300w 4x12 cab, and I still get that noise! It only seems to do it with one of my guitars (the 73 Custom). That guitar currently has a 22k ohms bridge pup...could that be my problem. I would think so, but that noise doesn't sound like the clean channel being overdriven. It doesn't do it with my Reverend Slingshot (P-90s).Last edited by mrid; 08-25-2004, 07:24 AM.

Re: What's wrong with my speakers? (sound clip)
it sounds like static to me, and reminds me of a problem I had with my Vibrolux after I had it serviced and modded recently.
In my case, my amp tech traced it to long earthing tracks on the pcb 'talking' to each other. He modified the earthing and fixed the problem.
Hope that helps. Sounds like one for a qualified amp tech...Last edited by Hot _Grits; 08-25-2004, 10:44 PM.Originally posted by Jolly...but then again, I'm so deaf I can't even hear myself fart.

Originally posted by mridYes, I'm starting to think this is an amp issue as well. Do you think I should send it in to Bogner or do most techs work on complicated PCB amps?2006 Gibson Custom '58 Reissue Les Paul
