left front speaker cutting out

Started happening while I was out riding yesterday. I am running biketronics 7.1 speakers and a Sony head unit all purchased through biketronics. I took the fairing off and everything appears to be connected properly.

What else should I check?

Do you have another 4 ohm speaker laying around to test? Since it's only one speaker should be easy to isolate.

Yes sir. I have my old Polk speakers I removed before installing the new biketronics stuff. I will give that a shot later this afternoon.

Well, I pulled the fairing off again and disconnected the speaker that wasn't working and hooked up one of my old polk speakers.

The polk worked perfectly so I guess it's an issue with the 7.1. Gonna give bill a call in a minute. Thank you guys for your help.
