Hey, I just aquired 4 RTi4 speakers and 3 of them sound real tinny and the woofer is not working, they where in heated storage and I looked inside for chewed/lose wires and everything looked good. Any help???

    It sounds like the jumpers are missing or damaged. There should be two jumpers on each speaker connecting the 2 red posts together and the 2 black posts together. If they're there, then make sure all 4 posts are screwed on securely. If they're missing you can use a short piece of standard speaker wire to replace each jumper.

    Thanks for the reply, checked it out & the jumpers r there and made sure they were tight and no difference, when I took one speaker apart it had about 2cups of mouse seed (lol) in it, I then check the rest and they are fine and can't see any damage inside, any other suggestions?
    Thanks Chris

    I'd still try replacing the jumpers with some small pieces of speaker wire. I've noticed in other threads that fixes problems like this even if the jumpers are there. Not sure if the jumpers go bad or maybe get oxidized.

    Also, try switching around the speakers to different outputs on your amp to make sure that it isn't related to your amp somehow.
