Speaker Problems

Ok so I bought new 6' by 9' Speakers for my car due to the stock ones being blown out... One of the new ones seemed to have blown out not too long after I got it, And about 6 months ago the other one just stopped working. If i hit a hard bump it may kick back on for a few minutes and then just cut back out... I check the connections on the speaker and they are completely connected. I'm thinking that the wires in my car are bad and not the connections. I may be wrong. What is an easy way to see where the problem is coming from?
Thanks

In my experience, a blown out speaker will always make at least some noise, even if its just hissing or crackling. So assuming the speaker itself is good, and you're absolutely sure that the wires are firmly connected at the speaker, then you're right - the problem has to be somewhere else, the wiring through the car or at the stereo itself. And when you say that a bump will sometimes cause it to come on, that to me sounds like a connector problem, something isnt securely connected.
I would start at the stereo itself, make sure the connection at the back is good. I would suspect its more likely a connector than the wire itself, as unless theyre pinched or exposed to elements or tensed up a lot, wires dont usually just fall apart.
Hopefully this helps.

So You Would Think It's In The Stereo Tho The Front Speakers Work And The Back Ones Don't? And Just To Let You Know The Blown Speaker Was Disconnected After It Blew Due To The Crackling. Would That Make Any Difference In The Problem?

do you have a stock radio installed or a aftermarket radio?
