It sounds like a cone failure, but as it is affecting at least the four lower door speakers, I have to consider the amps too. I may take out one door speaker and look.

The rasp happens on all inputs Radio, CD, DAB & TV. It is also a certain part of the range that is affected. I can have a track that uses very deep bass and that is fine, but a track with mild bass is affected.

I cannot rule out however that the previous owner got all the lower door areas wet and killed the speakers. All four have dents where peoples feet have hit them. The previous lady owner did manage to mark quite a few areas on the car.
