Is this buzz from the mechanical motion of the voice coil or does it seem to be electrical.Something you might try is putting a 1 1/2 volt battery across the woofer terminals,connected one way will drive the cone out ,the other way in. Do it only momentarily, to find out if you hear any rubbing of the voice coil.I'm not sure if this will eliminate the possibility of it rubbing when it's in use , but it might help isolate the problem. There could be a piece of debris or dirt in there too.
When I refoamed my L Advents ,I used the battery idea to drive the foam surround into the glue.But you're right about the looser tolerance, I'm not sure this idea would work with a close tolerance voice coil.
