When it comes to your issues it is the typical what died first that killed it's friends?
Yikes, have I committed “audiocide”?? A misbehavin’ sub ain’t my friend 💥 Hopefully Brian at Rythmik can make me love subs again…..at least for a time ⏰
OK, apparently that amp has issues and was the cause of the noises you were hearing all along. At least since you have the subs close to the rack on the inside of the speakers you can just use one of them with both of the cables until Brian sends you a new amp.
You were merely complicit in observing a death wish come to pass.
Brian's customer service has been stellar in the past. It all depends upon his ability to source his goods. He is a very smart, nice human.
Yes, the sub experiment went south a bit. I’m not ragging on Rythmik or Brian at all. These are nicely made subs, with limitations on the quality of some parts. Stuff happens and Brian was prompt to respond regarding my concern of a loud “thump”. And he responded within a couple of hours after I told him him the left sub died. If I were ticked off at Brian and Rythmik, I wouldn’t have offered to remove the amp, disconnect the wires, find a box for it, package it securely and just ship the amp back and not the whole sub. The boxing, packaging and my time would be on me. They’re a small company from what I know and I’m trying to save them a few dollars in shipping. Companies should have unhappy customers like me who try to resolve things amicably and save them money in the process.
