Jeff, what are you referring to as the "basket"? Is that just part of
the speaker?  How do I test for DC on the speaker wires, across the
wires or from each wire to ground? I had another speaker connected and
ran the amp at low volume and it played ok but I want to do the DC test
to be sure.

Thanks,
