I'm new to the audio biz, but I just bought a Yamaha RXV-450 receiver, and a set of Infinity Beta 20s, 150s, and the C25. I was fiddling with my new DVD player, and couldn't get sound. I turned the volume way up to max +10 dB, and nothing but low level noise came out. Wondering if I could have damaged the speakers by doing this. I have since been able to get the system to work. |

If it is working properly right now, then you should be fine. Just check if all your drivers are working. |

If they are working and sound fine, they are not blown. You can also smell them. Blowing is a physical process that results in a burnt smell. |
