U may want to check the surround to make sure it has not separated from the cone (this is an issue some have had with oem 10)

I also noticed on one of mine there was excess clear resin on the backside of the cone near the surround edge and at near maximum excursion it was making contact with the spider, making a sort of clicking or tapping sound. Once I removed it the sound was gone. Another thing to check is to look on the underside of the surround, the entire perimeter, for glue drips that have hardened. That will also make a clicking type of sound. Be careful when removing it as you could tear the surround. The limiting factor for this driver seems to be the backside of the cone contacting the spider at max excursion.
I appreciate that info, hopefully I can get this sub going 100% again.That is exactly the noise it makes. I've checked the surround, and other than a few maybe suspect areas around the mounting holes, I,m not really seeing anything else. I'll check it out.. Thanks

is it the honey comb cone? the layers in the cone could have came apart; it happened to mine in a .4 sealed off 800watts w/ little abuse
my oem 10 aluminum is now in a .667 @34 ABC off 800watts and it can take way more.
my bpx2200 sounded
monstrous but it was too much for daily
