Question

So a few days ago I'm on my way to work and my subs sound very very scratchy... even at low volumes. I pulled over, checked them.. and they both sounded extremely staticy. Found it akward that both subs would go at the same time.

On my way home, they sound fine. This goes on for a few days when I realize the trend... when it's cold, they sound awful... then it's warm (evenings), they sound OK.

So I'm on my way home last night.. listening to music, and my bass just dies mid-song. I look over my shoulder into the ski-bag and I see the Zapco amp power light is still on. I pull over, check all connections... everything seems ok. But still no bass.

Any ideas what it could be?... Did my amp die? .. or a connection somewhere?

do the voice coils rub when you push on the cone? have you checked for continuity ?

Bad RCA or shorted remote turn on from the deck ?
