I was wondering if anyone has had problems with their speakers cause mine sound crackly and they better not be blow cause I don't put the music up too loud. The thing is you can only hear it on certain songs I have but I don't think it's the song cause I've played them in a Jeep and no problems. So let me know if this might be a common problem.

 

doesnt sound too good. Which ones front or back?

 

Front, I can't tell if it's left or right...or both, I prolly should figure that out cause I'm bringing my cobalt to chevy on Monday for some other problems...

 

they are prone to goin bad. The funny thing is I have a friend that has a balt and she blown her speakers twice. ALL of them. We replaced them under warranty for her. But, I had a Rockford Fosgate T5002 hooked up to my factory speakers in my yellow balt I had for almost 2 years and it never crackled a bit. That amp puts out just about 600 RMS per side when hooked to 1 ohm.

Odd isn't it.

 

ya man i had mine crap out with in 8-10 months just the front got the swaped out on warranty thank god but next time it happens haha im not going back to GM , there crap

 

i bought my car new and they lasted about a year

 

One of my tweeters crackles every once in awhile, it makes me sad.

 

The speakers don't operate well in cold conditions. Did you let your car warm up for 30 minutes with the radio off and then try it?

 

lol

 

glad im not the only one like this... i dont even play my stuff that loud

 

Yea, certain songs it's more predominate and everytime I play these songs it happens.

 

fyi the vocie coil of the speaker should work better in the cold then the heat. Excess heat is what actually burns the speaker (although there are several ways to "blow" them)

 

I heard that depending on the quality and engineering, running speakers near the teen temperatures and below may be problematic as it is below the operating temperature threshold. Example, optimal operating temp would be 32 degrees - 100 degrees, see what I am saying?

 

Problem was I was playing it yesterday and it was like 50 degrees out

 

Yikes. Well I may be mistaken, but is that called clipping? Yeah man take it to the dealership.
