LSI Fx Volume Problem

Hi
I've got a 5.1 setup with 2 LSI F/x as surrounds (LSi-9 & C make the rest) driven by an emotiva xpa-5 with a Marantz SR8001.
When running tests, one of the two LSI F/X is significantly quieter then the other (like 30% of volume). I don't notice any specific sounds (lows/highs) itself not showing up, just everything is much quieter. Initially I suspected a wiring issue and swapped the two speakers (left to right) to make sure. The issue remained with the same speaker. Any suggestions on what to look for or what might be causing the problem? (FYI both speakers have the low and high posts jumpered together).

Thanks a bunch

    Thanks!! :)
    That actually did the trick, checked outputs of both , turned out the binding posts were loose causing the problem. Tightened them up and it sounds great

    Thanks again
