also just remembered that this morning

67.169.169.117

my wife bumped the right speaker off of its stand but i was able to catch it before it fell.

i didnt bother to put it back in place as i was watching our daughter all day and wouldnt be able to do any work on the system anyway.

i gave it a quick look-over and everything seemed ok wrt wires shorting or being pulled loose.

because it is all still in the prototype stage i have it all wired with audiofool-grade alligator test leads.

its never happened to me before but........could the leads for the right subs have momentarily shorted and caused the damage to the driver ?

in the past ive accidentally shorted speaker leads and caused damage to the amp/receiver but never to a speaker.

im thinking if they shorted briefly maybe the arc was enough to separate them also ?
