Default Sail Panel Sub question HELP ??

I just bought an ss two weeks ago and it has the Monsoon. I just noticed that neither one of the sail panel 6.5" midrange subs are making any sound what so ever. No noise at all. Is it possible they are just blown or does this mean I have some wiring issue?? I have some new kicker 6.5" on the way. But now Im worried they wont even do anything! Any help would be much appreciated.

maybe the previous owner did something and put in some different speakers. just open her up and see whats going on in there. you'll know if there are new speakers, or if it was a hack job.

sounds like they are just blown. when i bought my car a few months back the drivers side front was blown so i just replaced both fronts, problem solved. just put the new ones in and be done with it. i dont think its anything more than just blown speakers.

Do you have an aftermarket cd player?? because if you do you will need to re whire the speaker set up, meaning running each whire from the cd player directly to the speakers.
