Need help troubleshooting a buzzing rear channel
bear with me here...speaker in question is a Definitive Technology BP-8 bi-polar speaker.
I have a buzzing in my right rear surround channel at moderate to high volumes. It is only in my right rear. I checked all conections at the speaker, at the amplifier, and at my pre/pro. All connections seem fine.
I switched the input wires at the amp, and my left speaker does not buzz (signal from amp is clean), so I have isolated the problem to the right speaker.
The tweeter seems to be the driver making noise here. I removed the grill and both the front and rear tweeter are buzzing, not just one, so in my mind that seems to rule out a bad or blown driver...so working backwards it seems as though my crossover is damaged.
Does this seem like a reasonable diagnosis? Has anyone sucessfully repaired a crossover? It does not seem to have that many parts. I suppose I could get a new one from Def Tech, but if this is something I can repair that seems like the more economic solution.
Any thoughts? Any alternate diagnosis?
Thanks in advance...man its' been a long time since I posted here.
