My right front speaker seems to trigger a rattle when certain basslines are playing. Someday I should just play something while sitting near the speaker to see exactly what's rattling.

Yeah besides the speaker rattle I have one of the worst hatch rattles. I have no idea what causes it, but whenever I drive without the radio it makes me think twice and turn it right back on.

when i used to have my tc. i popped the driverside door off because they were driving me nuts. it wasn't the speakers(at least not for me), but it was this clear plastic lining within the door that vibrated that caused this rattle. it may or maybe not the case for you guys, but it is worth a shot.

I'm not sure about the Tc but my xb had the same problem.
It was the two screws in the door panel, they kept vibrating lose and allowing the pannel to rattle. I just got some locktite and problem solved.
Nail polish works just as well if you don't want to buy it.
