      If one speaker still does not play on your Bose Amplifier, try these troubleshooting steps: * Disconnect the wire from the working speaker and attach it to the non-working speaker. If the speaker does not play, the problem may be with the speaker and not the speaker wire. * Disconnect the speaker wire from the terminal block connector and connect it to the other terminal block connector. If the speaker plays, the problem may be the other speaker wire. * Replace the speaker wire. If the speaker still does not play, the problem may be in that channel of the amplifier.
