I do not believe it is my amp as the subs are wired in parallel.

one of the two subwoofer makes a buzzing sound while playing. It is the sub itself, not something else vibrating.

The box is a bassworx ported box. Below the one sub it is cracked on the surface panel. But even putting pressure to stop where it is cracked from vibrating, does nothing.

Could it be the wire between the amp and the sub? I don't see anything wrong with them.

I guess I should try pushing on the cone to see if it's scratchy. If it is, is it blown?

i don't think it could be due to the RCA's, since the amp is mono, but I guess I could see if it causes the other one to do the same.

Any other things to check?


Edit:

Just pushed on the cone, nothing.

Pull the sub out check the coils with a dmm. Could be your tinsel leads, a loose dust cap, improper ohm load at amp. A few things when you have it out of the box just hook it up to.the amp and play it and try to see where its coming frim.
