Brand new Alpine speakers clicking - 4/29/2008 6:30:22 PM    Retrac   Posts: 5 Joined: 9/16/2007 Status: offline So around Christmass I got a set of alpine front speakers SPR-17C. I didnot install them untill around Feburary but my right speaker clicks on what seems to be louder bass notes. I was very carefull when installing them not to puncture them and made sure there was no obstructions. Other than this i have not had much time to tinker with them. any suggestions on what i could do to stop the clicking noise thanks much Post #: 1

I go home and start installing them but before I do I played them again and they sounded fine.  Play some music on them, better yet, go to www.taralabs.com and on the left side you will see something that says "Download Cascade Noise Burn In CD". Once it's downloaded, burn it onto a CD and play it for a few hours at moderate listening levels.  It will break in the speakers.  After some good break in period see if it still does what it's doing.
