Hey,
I know very little about speakers so please bear with me.
I've had a pair of RTi28's for 3 years. They've been awesome but now both of them have VERY low, almost no, sound. When I turn the volume up high I can hear a low distinguishable sound coming from both (drivers?) on the speakers. I don't hear any static or foriegn sounds but that could be because its so low.
I've tried wiring them through a couple recievers. An old Pioneer and a newer Sony and my PSW250 sub. It doesn't change anything.

Does anyone know what could be wrong with them? Are they blown?
Thanks
