I'm trying to bring back to life my 22-year-old M&K MX-100 sub that's been in storage for several years. I used deox on the pots, replaced a rusted fuse and Dremeled a rusted fuse holder that was heavily corroded. I can't explain the heavy corrosion on just one of two fuses and fuse holders as they've been stored indoors 100% of the time.
Anyway, it's a push-pull design and I'm wondering if service can be performed on the driver. Without removing the driver it appears to be in good condition.
There is a flutter or vibration it just isn't right with the driver
And because it seems to be getting better / less vibration I'm thinking maybe something can be cleaned up or ??
Thoughts?
TY!

Check the foam surrounds on both woofers for cracks or other forms of deterioration.
Check the spiders, and make sure they're not torn or separated from the basket frames.Home Theater/2 Channel:
