When i connected my 1977 Polk 7A's to my new Pioneer VSX-D510, the left speaker was dead; i crossed the channels, still nothing, same speaker. Tested with D-cell - nothing. I thought the unit might have calved when the lightning took out my Yamaha RX-V490. Suspected crossover or terminations since all drivers in the box are dead, fuses OK. Signed in to the site & forum, no specific troubleshooting advise. Opened the box, 1st time in 24+ years, started with the ohmmeter and D-cell. All drivers OK, didn't find a problem, tried main leads again, and all is well! Must've been a loose wire, may have to find it some day. No mercy for these babies. They've been pushed, hauled, and driven!! ROCK AND ROLL!!

Yes it sounds like your speakers are from the Victorian age.
No matter.
Keep Polking around, you'll find the short.
