I think Oz was referring to the boat your friend's son just crashed. I'm assuming he is gonna repair it or will insurance take care of it?

Yes the boat was insured, the young man was fatally injured so my wife and I haven't been in too much of a boating mood this year.

Oh man... I'm so sorry. That is terrible. One of those times when words fail.

Is there a thread that refers to that problem that I should search out? Is that a problem that others have had?
thanks

Thanks Oz, I try to let this be a lesson for those whom like to add alcohol with their operation of motor vehicles, wether it be on the land or on the water. The young man didn't have either mine nor his father's (as far as I know) permission to use the boat. Makes for a bad situation all around, especially whenever anybody who knows me knows that as much as I like my Bud Light I have always been extremely strict regarding alcohol on the boat, in the plane and in the car...and my friend knew this!
Such is life. I have another friend who lost a relative whenever he smacked his jet ski into the side of his buddy's boat weekend before last as they were mixing up alcohol and boating...these fellows were all paramedics and firemen.

I had the problem bigwill refers to with one of my 60's. Play something that has the imperfect sound .. .try to pinpoint, by placing your ear close to each individual driver, which driver is causing the noise . . .then remove the driver and check on the connectors at the back of the speaker. Sometimes they can be just a bit loose. I tightened the connectors for the midrange driver on one of my 60's and voila. . .the problem was solved.

Thanks for the tip. I have not been able to reproduce the problem a second time. If it reappears I will check the connections. I think it may have been the source material. I can't remember what I was listening to when it happened. Right now all is good.
Thanks,
oz
