Default Speaker issue

I have a 2014 Ultra Limited. Recently the front speakers shut off on me while the rear speakers are working fine. I get no sound out of the front right speaker but I'm still getting sound from the tweeter only in the left front speaker. Anyone have a clue as to what's causing this. I appreciate any help

Speakers blown? 6 1/2" speakers bolt right in on the 2014 and up touring bikes, and if you get 2ohm speakers (same impeadence as factory), they will sound better.

Could be anything from a loose wire, to blown speaker, to a bad channel in the stereo.
If you can turn a wrench do some testing under the fairing.

Thanks for the info. I'll be pulling the fairing tomorrow to see if I can figure it out. Stereo wasn't being played loud at the time they shut off so I'm hoping they're not blown and something just came loose.
