After doing some painful exploration at loud volumes with my ear next to each driver

Ow ow ow! You may have just lost the top 1kHz of your hearing range.

That's one way of getting rid of rattling noises. Deafen yourself.

snippy- Wanna see/hear if your speakers still rattle? Go get the Underworld DVD. Man that has got to be the most overcooked DD track I have ever heard. Great mix, but totally overcooked (even worse than FOTR 2 disc). If the Underworld mix can't make your speakers rattle then nothing will.

What I have been using to test it and what showed me the problem in the first place was the AIX DVD-A disc of Nitty Gritty Surround. There is a certain guitar solo that causes the rattling noise.

I do have Underworld next on my Netflix queue, though, so we shall see.

And the volumes were not ridiculously loud, just at aroun -14 on my Denon 2802. But I did have to put my head next to each driver to hear where the problem was coming from.
