I was cleaning my truck this evening with a pressure washer, and i forgot that my windows were slightly cracked open about a quarter inch or half inch. I washed my truck (had peanut butter on the windows, dont ask lol) but the inside of my truck mostly got wet...I put about $1400 into my system in this vehicle, which is why you can see my concern. I turned everything off once i realized what happened. I drove and got towels and dried the inside off best i could and looked at the components. For the most part, everything was dry. The only thing that got massively wet was the floor, seats, dash, and windows, but I could see with a flashlight into the door speakers that they had a few drops of water on them (which is good that I turned off everything when I first realized everything was wet). Any tips on maybe salvaging my system or how to minimize damage?

 

You should be just fine man. I get a little water in my door when it rains and my speaks get a little wet. What brand speakers are they?

 

they are infinity speakers....like $250 pair of speakers lol

 

To be exact they are Infinity Reference 6032 si speakers

 

Worst case scenario is you are out $65 bucks to replace them:

And no, I dont think you will have a problem. Water flows through most doors when it rains (by design) so they are exposed to far more moisture than you would think.

 

Yup i have infinity kappas, youll be fine.

Where the hell did you pay $250 for a set of reference speakers?

 

Got em' from Crutchfield.com. I didnt get them when they were on sale or anything so I paid out the A$$ for em'. I called them and they said not to even worry, they're built like a brick ****house and top of the line still (even after two years after I bought them) although, I would still like feedback about any knowledge anyone has on the matter.

 

most after market speakers are marine rated meaning you can install them on a boat, so they work get ruined when they get a little wet. as long as the woofer cones aren't made out of paper or felt you should be ok.

 

I got mud on my ID OEM mids when I was using them during last hunting season. Frankly, the added moving mass made them sound better.

 

And everyone says crutchfield is better...

I believe personally that Crutchfield is better lol sorry... also my subs have been sounding weird and making a weird "thwap" sound on certain bass noises. They didn't get very wet at all during the incident. They are 10' shallow-mount pre-boxed kicker subwoofers...

 

If you like spending $150 more for the same speakers, go right ahead.

a "thwap" sound? Sounds pretty normal for kicker subs to me...

 

Crutchfield is good because they are an authorized dealer of pretty much everything they sell, which means the warranties from the product are good, plus you have a Crutchfield warranty also but Yea...when I say "thwap" sound I mean that when it hits that it just doesn't sound right and is making a sharp hit with a distinct "thwap" at the end.
