1998 rowe encore whole left side speakers sound disstorted

my 1998 encore model cd-100 whole left side speakers sound disstorted(like the sound u get with a blown speaker) the 8 inch woofer,mid and tweet,but the right side sound excellent...they sound worse when the volumes low and u can barelly detect it when the volumes high...i already pulled all the speakers out and inspected them and none are ripped, a matter a fact their in great condition,so im guessing it has something to do with the amp,but not sure since the right side speakers sound great...really could use some expert advice on this issue...thanks in advance...
 
since already have the speakers out, try testing them from another source.
or if it's possible to reverse leads from L channel to R channel to check amp.
 
Amplifier probably has blown output transistors for that channel. Pull the amplifier out and check the four fuses on the driver boards. One may be blown which would indicate a bad output transistor.
 
Hello,

Yes it will more than likely be the amplifier, like Ken says check those output fuses on the amplifier.
If these are ok they check all the amplifier connections between the pre-amplifier and the output boards and on the 13 pin jumper plug on the pre amplifier.
You can also check that the speakers are ok by connecting them to the good channel.

Please let us know how you get on.
