Hello,

There is a weird sound coming from my Void V18

Here a video showing the problem : https://www.youtube.com/shorts/H9QmoZmbCS0

There is a "Tic" as if something is touching the cone or suspension, it doesn't seem to be coming from the voice coil but rather the suspension, when I lightly touch the right area, the "tic" disappears

has anyone ever had this problem?

Have you checked the spider? If it has split or has come loose this could be the culprit.
Another silly one, with the cab in the box is the feed in cable held away from the back of the cone?

The spider looks fine, but the Void is a two spider driver so it could be the first one which I can't check.

The driver is out of the box for almost a year now but the feed cable didn't touch anything when it was mounted

Could it come from the suspension which is a bit dirty ?

Are the tinsel leads riding on or touching the cone?

It turned out to be the suspension, I took it off completely and glued it back on properly and the noise disappeared
