    i recently bought some tweeters during the weekend and recently noticed that one of them is constantly popping regardless what the volume is. it still sounds awesome and works fine but constantly pops. i have a amp and crossover hooked up to power the 2 tweeters and the other 2 speakers that are in my door but only this one tweeter is popping. please help:confused:

    Wow. This has to be the oldest thread Ive ever seen drudged up.

    What kind of popping? If its a "staticky" sound then you could have some speaker wire touching bare metal somewhere.

    It could also be electrical interference between something else in your cars electrical system. My tweeters are more staticy with the fan (inside fan not the fan in the engine) on then when it's off. Not sure why, but whatever.

    My first guess would be that youve got a ground problem either a loose or bad ground or outright ground loop.
