Hello I purchased this speakers and when they were delivered I could hear things moving around in the speaker box..is that normal?

no. it's not normal. something is loose in the speaker/broken inside, maybe a piece of wood from the speaker and that might be what is moving around. nothing should be moving around inside the speaker box. however, how is the sound? do you hear any crackling? any funny noise? anything out of the ordinary?
990487
Definitely not normal and will cause undesired rattling noises.I would return it.
990488
Yes mine are the same it's the connections in side...mine sound great have it hooked up to 1200 watts theater system....

First, no - that's not normal. I'm not sure how large the thing is you hear moving around but it may be insulation, a speaker wire or a lose cross over. Either way I would suggest you take advantage of Amazon's generous return policy and either return then for a refund or replacement pair. That rattle will show up while playing music especially at higher volumes.

This sound is not normal. I had the same issue with both my speakers when they arrived. I was too curious to send them back, so I took out the speaker and tweeter and found a piece of wood corner brace that had came unglued. I also noticed the crossovers came loose from the inside of the enclosures and were hanging by the wires... I remounted the crossover, took out the loose corner pieces, and put the speakers back together and they woked fine. I'm still using them, and I like the way they sound, but I am disappointed in the build quality.

Its the crossover inside the cabinet, remove the rear plate or woofer to access it and hot glue it to the inside of the cabinet. The crossover needs secured so it wont rattle at higher volumes or during future handling. Not a big deal if the speakers work as intended. Send them back if you are not comfortable doing this.

I have two of these speakers. One of them makes a noise if you shake it the other does not. The sound quality out of both is equally amazing.

Absolutely NOT. This happened to me, as well. BIC uses an adhesive pad to mount the crossover card to the inside bottom of these enclosures. If this adhesive pad doesn't make good contact with the bottom, the circuit card could easily come loose and flop around. It happened to me. I took the speaker terminal plate off and glued mine in place. Sad, but true.

Nothing in my FH-65B rattles...I picked it up and shook the speaker to test.

I have not experienced any problem as described with my speakers. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Recently got mine too. Remember if they are on then so is the amp. You'll only feel a little warmth on the Left speaker, where the amp is housed.

The answer I just sent assumed you had external speakers. If they are internal and against the backing the sound will be baffled unless you add external speakers.

I just cut a hole and mounted them with no speaker box. They sound fine to me. some people and installers have recommended adding insulation material to help these speakers sound better.

No! To be honest I feel like I wasted money on these. The speakers are okay at best. The sub is nice, but it does just like someone else mentioned. When watching a movie, if sound dips or there's a lull. The sub cuts off and back on when sound picks up. So you'll get that blue light off and on flicker. Sometimes even a little thump when the sub comes back on. I do like the size of them if you're tight on space. If you aren't go with some bigger front and center speakers. Hope that helps.

I got the same issue (connected with USB) plus, has static. The on/off control is in the weird location and many times I get the Static with a noise in the speaker. They even get sound when I turn on and off the light in the room. It never happened with the previous speakers.

I don't notice a noise in the speakers until I turn off the tv and leave it on then it makes noise. As for overheating, I just touched the back of mine and the metal is hot but it hasn't overheated yet and it's been in since the day I wrote the post. I'm sorry if that doesn't help

I have been using a pair of these speakers live for about 6-7 years now. They are not noisey at all either with my mackie mixer or my newer Behringer mixer. I suspect your mixer is introducing the noise.

I bought mine new. No problems. Very good speakers. Send your back and get new ones.

This is not normal. I have the speakers and they do not buzz when there is no sound output.

NO. A friend had a different speakers from a different manufacture that when he hooked them up to his computer he had it made some noises. He moved the speakers a way from the computer it work excellent. Hope this works for you.

No. They are very queit speakers in terms of noise. Check your source and make sure your levels aren't causing the noise.

I never received my speakers. I ordered them in September. They are shipped from China, but they never came. I was told they were sent, but probably never made it past customs. I was refunded my money with no problem. Good luck!

You shouldn't notice much difference in sound from when these are new and after they have played for a couple thousand hours... These are surround speakers so should be either the rear or side speakers which get very little use. Effect speakers in general see under 5% of what the front sound stage will see... I have never seen any proof that speakers needed to "break in", hook them up and enjoy...

The speakers are on the bottom and behind to the left and right of the controls. They seem to be down/front firing.

I haven't experienced that. I have them connected to a pre-amp with treble and bass controls, and while the bass is excellent when cranked up, they don't rattle at all. The speakers are on the same level as a vinyl record player, which is a bookshelf loaded with records. No issues with vibrations at all.
