[Guest]

The silver thingy in the middle of the cone

I think its just coated dust cover.

cleaned dials no cigar, but its working everything, music (mostly dubstep) works perfectly fine, but youtube videos for example where it is just words/vocals is muffled.

at least for past hour, its very bipolared, how it sounds and what and when always changing, really frustrating, the issues come n go, new issues old issues,

I don't quite understand what you want to say. You fixed some problems and now you have new one? Which are solved which are new?

i used compressed air can.

That wont help. Use contact spray. Its cheap and very useful.

IIRC phono is normally very low-power stuff, and is heavily pre-amped so maybe you're overpowering it.

I've used an phone in as aux but it wasn't very pleasant when you turned it up.

Weird thing is that one speaker works OK.

, i mis said, its on the cd/tape input, i had on phono a long time ago, and it was terrible, but i double checked its not on that. 

[Arty]

If the sound is there even when something is not playing then the amp or the transformer is about to die

 

 

I can't hear anything wrong

 

 

@Arty I'm almost sure that it's a loose whizzer cone. Thought that at first, then the muffled high frequencies confirmed it.

So i opened it up and 1/6 of the speaker is blown, the other 5/6 is tight, but that 1/6 is that sound when u lightly push on the speaker, any way to fix it? that explains why it only partially works sometimes?

As i said before i guess you didn't see it sounds to me like a broken coil and no is not much you can do about it

i can hear that scratching sound when pushing speaker from inside, it that the coil? only comes from one corner of the speaker then i push rest it does not  though?

as of right now that speaker is working no problem,

To be honest i am not so sure man...maybe the coil lost it's glue is is not attached to the diaphragm anymore and once it's in place it sounds fine.If i had the speakers here to take them apart and look inside and play some music i would figure it out in no time but like this...is kinda hard to tell

yea, any tests in specific i can do to tell if the coil is bad along with the speaker cone body thing being blown?, cause it is partially blown for sure.

For the coil any high pitch voice also low frequency bass 30-50 hz

voice was good, 30hz was good 50hz showed a lil bit of unusall noise 

during all the tests, thier was a split second (randomly) of a noise (idk flappy sound maybe )

It could be off centered coil.

but I dont understand what "1/6 of the speaker is blown" means

[Lutkeveld]

Don't think the speaker is meant for such low frequencies and what you're hearing is motor noise.

Was the silver thingy in place?

when you push the speaker, it makes that scratch sound, blown, and one corner of the speaker blown, the rest acts as its supposed too.

Than you could give it for rewinding of speaker coil. But for speakers like that its not recommended as it will cost 1/2 price of speaker.
