I think I found the best Sub for the stock pair.

Yeah it still rattles with the grilles off. It seems like the plastic center piece of the speaker is hitting on the rear side after being pushed out to make the sound. Could the magnet being too close to metal cause this problem? There should be plenty of room to for the air in the rear hole of the speaker. Thanks for the thoughts.

Have you tried to pull the sail panel away from the speaker and see if it stops the rattle?
If it does you would need to find a way to keep the panel away from the speaker

Hmm sorry to ask so many questions but I'm really trying to figure out what the deal is with the speakers.
When you shake the speaker does it sound like something is moving around in the magnet?

I guess I'm gonna have to do like Josh_101 said and exchange them and see how the new set does.

If at all possible give me a call at the office at 319.665.6350 or email me a good time to give you a call if calling long distance is a problem. (My email is bmilne@edesignaudio.com).
We'll go over anything in the vehicle that could be making a noise. If there is any question that the speakers may be misbehaving. We will replace them free of charge.
I look forward to speaking with you.

I got a pair of these speakers but decided to go a different route. From what I can make of Elemental's return policy, I can't return them since one is opened, so if someone's interested in these, pm me. I may post in the FS forum.
Edit: Now in FS forum

I may have to talk to you about doing a complete ED setup in my trans AM, possibly a 6500 for the fronts, and a pair of EU700's for mid bass all powered by a NINe.4.
FYI, I love my NINe.2X
