Does the speaker have foam suspension? *After some years that foam will break down. *I had some 15 year old speakers repaired and they sounded as good as new. Doubtful that a guitar amp speaker would have foam suspension, particularly one from the 80's. *Even new ones are hard to the rim. But, that doesn't mean the paper hasn't been torn or otherwise deteriorated from it's mounting. Could be a bad voice coil. That would be my guess, and for good reason. He says that if he plays single notes lightly, it's fine, but when he plays loud chords, it sounds awful. The voice coil probably has a burn in a spot that is beyond the amount of movement caused by a light single note, but gets reached when you play louder and the coil excursion increases. Then again, if the amp is from the 1980's the speakers are deteriorated regardless of whether they buzz or not. Sounds reasonable. how do I identify the voice coil on the board, can I test without a schematic? Voice coil is part of the speaker. It's the cylinder at the narrow end. If you have access to somebody else's speaker cabinet, you could plug your amp into their speaker and confirm you have a bad speaker.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Cleaned up the parts and connections I could and started playing with it. Seems to be getting better, I am thinking more about it being speaker related. But with more and more play, it seems to be getting somewhat better, could old speakers just be stuck and slowly work themselves in again?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I suppose anythings possible..... |
