Thanks, kindof what my worry was. I am guess the xover. I'm gonna try to high pass the monitors (from subwoofer line levels) for now and see if that solves the issue. It really only comes up in rare times with actual music but I want as close to perfection as I can get.
Pop/crackle in one speaker at only low frequencies in the tweeter
Odd problem here. I have some Silverline Audio SR 16 speakers which I just purchased used. They sound great. However I heard a pop (like what vinyl can do) when playing bass heavy music (not vinyl, digital served). I thought the subwoofer was rattling a connection as it did not sound like a speaker issue to me. I removed the sub and I thought it went away. Today I was running the stereophile test tones to dial the sub in at low frequencies. A pop or crackles appears in one tweeter at 50hz test tones and the few test tones below that. Nothing so far anywhere else in the frequency range but I have not been doing that much. I get the same pop/crackles thing with the sub removed and I play the tones thru just the monitors. It happens about 1/2 the time I run the test tones and only in the low bass area. I did swap the speakers from right to left and the issue follow the speakers. I am running the speakers single wire and they have jumpers installed.
Any ideas here?
