Noticed this distortion coming from the speaker today while I was on my way home. I don't know if its blown or maybe a bad connection. I took the speaker out and noticed some small cuts in the speaker wire. I cut before the cuts and re crimped new connectors. The problem is still there. The driver side is fine, no distortion at all. It is a big possibility it was wired wrong, I didn't do the install so I wouldn't put it past it. BTW the speakers really dont get that loud, my stock speakers seemed louder. I will List my setup below.

Head unit: Alpine CDA-9855
Front Speakers: Boston Acoustic Pro 60
Rear Speakers: JBL GT0927
Amp: Infinity 7540A 4ch (111x4)
Speaker Cable: JL Audio 16awg
RCA: Monster 404 XLN XTREME Audio Interconnect (4-Channel)

I know I went cheap on the amp. Kinda kicking myself in the ass for that.

sounds blown out.. getting some wire and perform the popping test with a battery.

Ok so if it moves its not blown?

With the battery test the cone should quickly move in or out (try it both ways) with only a single "click" sound, no scratching noises. Also try pushing on the cone with your fingers to see if it makes any scraping noises - it should go in and out without making a sound. Try this both when the battery is connected and when it's not. If it makes noises you either have a mechanical misalignment or an intermittent electrical connection, probably in the voice coil or lead wires.

Thank you I will give it a try.
