It blows air though the on/off button.
I'm not kidding.
It also distords when it shouldn't.
What should I do?
dj_alfi
fix it?

Contact your local music store and ask them where you can send it for reparation / reclamation...
And cross your fingers and hope they have a guarantee that hasn't expired... :D
The Drow
I have them for 6 years so I have no guarantees anymore.
Why does it blow air out of the on/off button when basses are played?
I'm really courius about this cuz it sounds like a joke but it's true.
Dickie-T
about the air, i think thats just normal, perhaps a little mistake in the design
dj_alfi
run some super glue (rapid) around the buttons.. that'd do the trick... about the distortion i cant help..

lol np... if air starts coming out othe places after that, just glue there until you got yourself a nice airtight woofer :P is it closed or does it have a bass port? (like that hole on the side or wherever)
The Drow
it's closed.

gotta love subs.....if they aren't built right they're a pain in the a**. I remember building a cabinet for my car's sub, and it was so powerful it was even blowing air around the screws.

the distortion could be caused by the leaking air, or the woofer itself could be worn out (you mentioned it was 6 years old, right?). Re-seal all the leaks like dj_alfi mentioned, and if that doesn't stop the distortion, you may have to replace the woofer.
