Speaker Crackling...

hello all...

this may not be the best place for this question, but i'm 90% sure yall will have the answer.

I currently play my guitar through a Mesa Boogie 5:25 Express 10" combo + 10" extension cab.

Recently the speaker on the combo has been crackling and really hurting the sound of my guitar. The extension cab is not crackling.

Any advice as to what might be happening? How do I fix this....?

Grinderman Bring Evil to the Best Buy Theater

Grinderman Bring Evil to the Best Buy Theater

I hope you’ve had an opportunity to listen to our October 2010 “Recording of the Month,” the evil and often hilarious Grinderman 2. On Sunday, I got to see the band play at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square. (The strangeness of seeing Grinderman perform at a place called “Best Buy Theater” is surpassed, albeit slightly, by the fact that the show took place on a Sunday, the Day of Our Lord.)

The Peachtree Audio MusicBox

In “Old-School Hi-Fi in Search of the New New Thing,” Hal Espen visits the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest and ponders the inherent dilemma of hi-fi.

How can a decidedly old-fashioned hobby move forward in an increasingly newfangled world?

Outside the listening rooms, the story of this year's Rocky Mountain Audio Fest traced the mood-swings and anxieties that buoy and beset the retro-futuristic world of high-end audio.

Trying to match my Grado RS2i's

Forums

I was considering the Dynaudio X12's but was told in another thread that they're at the opposite end of the sonic spectrum from my Grado's (which I assume means rather cool).

I definitely like warm; I returned the Grado SR325i's because they weren't warm enough.

Using a Marantz PM5004, Marantz CD5004, and Pro-Ject Debut III, and the Grado RS2i's.

I'm not too set in stone on budget, maybe around $800-1200.
