Bang Olufsen center dash subwoofer bubbling ?!

Anyone ever had this happen to them. It's the weirdest thing... when I first turn on the car and the subwoofer rises, it's fine. No bubbles... but as the day goes on, it seems like the heat causes the subwoofer to bubble. Just curious if this happens to anyone else.

For sure, it sucks..and expensive to replace if the "bubbles" become permanent..

Yep, that was mine... I couldn't live with the bubbles, and there is no way to remove the bubbled film, so I bought a "knock off" speaker from Ali Express. Seems to work fine.

It's actually a midrange/tweeter set up.

Very easy to swap. Pop off cover, remove 4 screws, disconnect wire, then do the reverse.
