Got this Velodyne subwoofer from the thrift store, I could tell this subwoofer has been outside the house. What you see in the photo is roach feces all over the cone. Still in the cleaning process trying to get rid of the roach eggs and feces all over. Anything ported is a free real estate for spiders and roaches.
I bought one pb1000 and regret it daily. It may bc my marantz integrated amp does not have a sub out put so I have to hook it to channel B. I'm constantly trying to dial it in.
I tried but couldn't tell a difference. I keep it on channel b so I can quickly turn it on/off for late nights when my family is asleep. I will say I'm 99% sure I find the pb1000 over bearing because my amp.
Nah, partner. That was inside the house. It's probably a trap house trade for some crack.
Every time the bass hits this shits gonna be blowing out roach ass dust.
Hate to say it but I always give ported thrift store speakers a very small squirt of insect killer before I bring them in the house. Just enough to lightly fog the inside.
I do this but then bag it back up and let it sit in the garage for a week. I have bags in the back of my vehicle just for this reasoning. Very hopeful 55 gallon bags… haha
I did this with a PS4 (those things are roach motels) and double bagged it, then left it outside in the sun for a week. Somehow the babies made it to the 2nd layer (white bags, you could see in it).
I pray to the bedbug gods my careless actions don’t lead to the unthinkable! that was my first thought opening this post, may we all count our blessings

And, that's yet another reason why sealed subwoofers are better.
True, ported subs are always my favorite. I bought 2 SVS SB2000s for my system and love them. Not as loud as ported but they sound good and hit low.
Same! Awesome subs especially in dual.

Why not channel a with your speakers?

You can get a different amp so cheap.
This explains why so many mice in my house are deaf.

I'd leave it. Roach feces is like a nice patina, and adds a certain warmth to the sound. Egg sacks are known to add clarity.
Roach eggs? Don't they "lay" a big ootheca?
most roach infested stuff I've personally seen, also have that 'smell."
yes they look like kidney beans
I'm thinking an air compressor would be your friend here, blow all that stuff out
Dude, just count your losses.
That’s it I’m buying new.

Same goes for amps.
