Just a thought, Have you check the speaker wires for any breaks? How about the main speaker feed plug that goes to the stereo? You may have a loose pin in the plug. If you replaced the stereo and have the same problem, I don't think the problem is in the radio. I know this sounds stupid,but are the rear speakers turned on at the radio level? Good luck

'99 Jeep: Speakers fading away? (not tweeters either) by t0ka4lyf

Sup , this isn't a Jeep specific problem really, but hoping someone knows what is wrong with my Jeep's door-speakers.
 
Just the other day while listening to music in my Jeep, the whole right side speakers went out, leaving me with just my left side playing. But the right side would start working like 5 minutes later, only to randomly start cutting out again every 5-10 minutes.
 
So yesterday I tried it again, this time checking the fade & balance of the speakers. I found that all 4 of the door speakers do work, it's just that 3 of them (both right side, 1 on left) only play at like 15% power..... while my other door speaker still plays at 100%. Not sure what is going on, as this just happened out of the blue... never heard any crackling beforehand or anything.
 
So I'm just wondering if anyone here knows what the problem may be. Like, are the 3 door speakers just getting worn out? Or is there a loose wire that would cause something like this to happen? I would think it was a loose wire if the speakers were still cutting out... but since they all still play (just very softly), I don't know what to think.
 
Thanks~

I have a 1997 and have had to replace all my speakers. The original equipment Infinity speakers have a paper cone and all of mine just rotted out from age. All of the door speakers are round and an unusual size. You will need to buy an 6 3/4" to 7" speaker to fit the hole unless you want to make or buy an adapter. 6 1/2" speakers will not fit without an adapter. Infinity does make a great sounding aftermarket speaker which I believe they advertise as a 7".

The Speakers in my jeep, an "Infinity system," aren't cheap to replace. I've successfully replaced the surrounds (the foam portion between the cone and the frame) for a fraction of what it costs to replace the entire speaker(s) with new. I ordered the parts from partsexpress dot com (do the math!). Took a lot of time, but the results were worth it. The problem with the originals is that the Foam surrounds will deteriorate over time. Why "foam surrounds"? Well, the response of the driver (speaker) based on where it's mounted, and it sounds darn good... Regardless, Replacement surrounds (if you don't mind spending the time) are worth the cash.

My rear speakers suddenly stoped working. The fuses are all good and when I push on the stereo it will kick back on then off again. Is it common for the wires to come loose or is the stereo going bad?
