I would not drive a mid range speaker without an appropriate size enclosure at that low of a frequency, I`m sure they might be capable of it but not without a proper box to keep then happy, more than likely they have excursion`d to far and tore the surround.
It dont take much power and a low frequency to do damage especially in a basically free air environment.
It could be that one is defective but I would adjust your crossover up a bit to avoid future problems.
Just my .02

I have the same speakers. I've never crossed them below 70hz, with a 24db slope, running 150 watts per speaker. What crossover slope are you using at 50hz? Check the fs spec on the mids in your users manual. Normally you can safely crossover at double the fs. 50 hertz is pretty low for a 6 1/2 " driver, especially when you have that kind of power available. Your crossover slope makes a huge difference also.
