I built a set of Khanspires for my theater mains and they are awesome. Thank you to everyone here who helps beginners like me be able to build speakers of a high quality that I would otherwise never have the chance to own. Special thanks to CJD and ---K--- for taking the time to help me decide on the Khanspires in the first place and then answer specific questions regarding my personal setup. I think the Khanspires were a perfect choice for my theater, and the sound from them is better than anything I've ever heard before. I really can't say enough good about them.
Now to my problem. These speakers are about three months old. I was listening to some heavy metal and turned the receiver up really loud and after a few seconds I heard a lot of static/crackling from the speakers and then the receiver shut off. I assume I was pushing it way too hard and it overheated? Ever since that happened I have been noticing some poor sound quality with certain songs. Things sound nice and clean until a certain note or frequency is reached and then it sounds like the cone of one of the drivers is vibrating up against a trash bag or tin. It is particularly noticeable with drawn out notes. Best I can tell I get this coming from both the left and right speakers. Any ideas what the problem is? I'm guessing it's a driver problem. Easy enough to replace but I don't want to waste money buying new drivers if that's not the cause.
Also, here are a few pictures of the build.
