The static you heard is no different in frequency range from the loud static heard between stations when running through the FM dial on a tuner. Speakers are meant to produce sound at rather loud volumes. What happened was that you were startled when you heard the sound. But your speakers weren't startled - they just did what they were supposed to do - and were not damaged in any way.
Speaker damage?
Hello, I was just setting up a new pair of speakers when I plugged the source's RCA connectors into the amp while the amp was already on. This produced some incoherent static - nothing too loud as the volume on the amp was only at moderate levels - but I'm still concerned this could have been bad for the speakers. The speakers are so new that I'm not familiar with the sound enough to know if it has changed. Could this have caused damage to them?
Thank you.
Thank you.
