I'm on a late 80s R&B kick at the moment, so I was doing Terence Trent D'Arby's debut and thought something sounded a little funny. I flipped the balance to the left speaker, but the tune was fading out and the side was ending, so I couldn't really tell.

Threw on Thriller, and that's when it became really apparent.

I don't fucking get it. These stood up to Sunn o))) and fucking Experimental Jet Set, Crash & No Star and the Clipse and repeated plays of "Gasoline Dreams," why the FUCK would they die during fucking THRILLER?!?!

Well, what say you fiends? Pony up for a new lefty or fuck off with it and go back to my oldsters til I can afford a new pair?

are we still talking about speakers &c

― Hoosteen (Hoosteen), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

if you just bought it, couldn't it still be under warranty?

have you called the place you bought them from?

― M@tt He1geson: Sassy and I Don't Care Who Knows It (Matt Helgeson), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 18:40 (nineteen years ago)

The warranty doesn't cover "misuse & abuse," which I assume is how they would describe a blown speaker. YOU PLAYED YR MUSICS 2 LOUD DOUCHE

I have not called the Circuit City (omg) I bought them from, that was my next step.

shove a pencil in your left ear and reconfigure your life to mono

Don't tell them you "blew" it, just say you picked up a defective speaker/it came out of the box that way. Otherwise I doubt they'll give you your money back/replace it.
