[QUOTE="braids, post: 3190597, member: 577073"] I was continuing a thread I did long ago in the amplifier section but I just realized that it would be better if I put the meat of my post in here since it is now a speaker problem I have. I decided to take my refurbished Kicker kx650.4 amp to Circuit City, since they are a authorized seller, and asked them to take a look at it. While the amp was hooked up to my car and after plugging and unplugging the amp many times over I heard a shreek sound coming from one of my right speakers. They turned off my radio and concluded that the amp was still messed up and advised me to call up kicker again. They gave me some info and told me that kicker shouldn't give me a hard way to go since it is under their repair warranty and the Circuit City verified a problem. I am driving down the road and decided to turn back on my radio I noticed my sound was messed up. The left driver side speaker has no highs. I get to my house, hook up my old amp and still no highs. Took off my door panel and noticed that the tweeter is not playing at all. This is all that I need now, f#%*d up speakers . How can I troubleshoot what is wrong with the speakers? I smelled them and they don't smell burnt. The woofer sounds ok. These are Diamond Audio 6.5 Hex components. I have a multimeter and a pack of beer. [/QUOTE]
