4ch amp and component speaker question

Quick Question

Can a single speaker on a 4 channel amp cause the amp to cut off if the speaker is blown.

Everytime I try to plug this speaker in and raise the volume the amp cuts off.

The speaker plays somewhat but not as loud as the others.

I plugged another speaker into the amp on that channel and it worked fine,

So The blown Speaker can cause a amp to go into Protect?

I know its not my voltage because my voltage sits at 14.2

yes. one bad speaker can cause amp to go into protect. can you measure the resistance (ohms) of that speaker's voice coil?

There you go - shorted voice coil putting amp into protect. Time for new speaker.
