Even if the speaker arrived in "good condition", those of us that have been here awhile have heard lots of stories about the shippinf companies jostling things around. I don't remember anyone ever getting a defective driver, though (I think every speaker is tested if I remember right!).

Likely a wire came loose and is buzzing up against the driver or something. Either way, a call to Axiom will get it taken care of quickly! \:\)
