Buzzing speakers

Hey guys I tried searching for this problem but I couldn't find if someone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

I have the base stereo (I know it doesn't matter with this problem.) and when the volume reaches about 30 once a bass note hits my speakers buzz as if something is loose or not secured properly.

Maybe something is loose and not secured properly. What kind of EQ do you have dialed in? Is the source material over boosted?

I think its the speakers honestly, I noticed it back when I first got my car but thought it was panel buzz. Since then I did my whole audio build and everything was perfectly silent.

Now that I pulled my equipment and put back the oem stuff to sell the car, I have buzzing again. I can guarantee its not panel buzz now, at least in my case.

I have no knowledge of stereos but the only setting that i have messed with was something like "FEEL" (I think its like Pop, Dance, Classic, etc. settings)
The source material is my phone through bluetooth. I believe the volume on my phone is always set to the highest point. Though no apps on my phone to change the output of the sound. I hope this is helpful info to diagnose.

Well if you haven't done so yet, have your doors deadened... at minimal the plastic door panel. If you still have it...then get some better speakers. That's prolly the easiest thing to say.

i also have this problem, but i know the cause of it.

it's making the buzz at the cup holder place on the door. both doors.

if you use your hand and pinch the cup holders and the outside of the cup holders the buzz will disappear.

i need to bring this up with my dealer and get it fix. ..

that is panel resonance, not speaker buzz. Some people have actual speakers that buzz.

yes I'm aware of that. for myself at first it sounds like a blown speaker to me, but i found out it's something else...

not sure if this is covered under warranty
