Title: Did my speaker melt? WTF? Post by: clapton924 on October 26, 2011, 08:48:46 PM So back in July I installed a new pair of Infinity 6x9's in my rear deck. 3 months later, I noticed the sound was starting to sound like crap. I popped the grills and found that the rubber surrounds have 'melted'. What the heck? Anyone seen this before?

Title: Re: Did my speaker melt? WTF? Post by: clapton924 on October 26, 2011, 11:08:19 PM Well, I live in the south...and my car sits in the sun everyday. In terms of over excursion...its being driven by an oem head unit...and I never play music more than moderately loud.
Title: Re: Did my speaker melt? WTF? Post by: timot_one on October 26, 2011, 11:19:33 PM I think that everyone in the south would have the same problem if heat was the issue. I'm more apt to believe that it could possibly be a manufacturers defect based on what you've told us so far.

Title: Re: Did my speaker melt? WTF? Post by: clapton924 on October 29, 2011, 09:53:40 PM The other speaker is in better condition, but the same "melting" effect is starting to appear on two sections of the rubber surround as well.
