My subwoofer smells when I put it too loud...

Well I've had my Logitech Z623's since like September now and since I got them, the sub would give off a sort of rubbery smell when I turn up my volume past half way.

Anyone reckon it's just because it's kinda fairly new and I haven't like 'worn them in'? Or maybe is it that it shouldn't smell like that?

 

hm... overheating.

 

Yeah that's one thing you'd think, but I doubt it's that :/ It's a weird smell.

 

Certain things smell really strange when they are new out of the box, but being months old I'd say that is very strange. If it were overheating it wouldnt last very long and you'd know. But hey! I'll take it off you hands for free! <3

 

Its ye girl, shes been on it TROLOLOL.

 

I have no clue what this could be, but ill give it a shot.

What you described (rubber smell, past half way) sounds like when the sub was constructed, they may have misplayed something or misaligned something and as it moves faster the friction is causing it to produce the smell. My suggestion would be to contact Logitech and see if they can provide you a replacement.

Just remember, don't try to open the sub as it may void your warranty.
