Had a change of mind and successfully did my very first sub repair. A speaker repair shop near me charged $30, but cheapo me, anted up $15 for the foam surround and some glue, and I got the job done. I'm now checking out how well the sub functions in different locations and I'm assessing whether...

Well, I might try to fix it (looks real easy to do), but probably not now as I am moving up to a 12" sub (Lava lsp-12). Thanks guys again for all your help. But, I'm not gone as i will most likely be back when I start having problems calibrating my new sub.

Yeah, I saw how to do it. Doesn't look hard at all. The problem is that the speaker is screwed into the box face plate, and in order to get to the speaker, I had to roughly remove the face plate. So my concern is that i think the box is compromised and will never again have a tight fitting.

OK, got the grill off. Took a knife and ran it around the grill's edge and then pried the grill off. The speaker was attached to the grill faceplate. Rumble sound was probably due to the disintegration of rubber/foam that attached the cone to the speaker. Is this worth a DIY? How?

Schan and RJ: My version of the PDR-10 is pretty old and most definitely, the grill glued on. I've removed the amp plate and most definitely the speaker can't be gotten to with the plate off. I will simply cut the grill clothe out and see if I can then work with the driver. Thanks for your...

The rumbling sound is barely heard when the sub's level is very low. However, as one increases the level, the rumbling sound increases...

Have a 10 year old PDR-10 that has a rumble in it. The rumble appears to be coming from the speaker itself. I would like to examine the speaker, but the grill is firmly attached to the box and I can't get to it. BTW, it is noted that the grill isn't attached normally; ie, not by attachment clips.
