Default bad speaker cable?

hi, ive been noticing that lately, since its been a lot colder, that only the speakers on the right side of my crossfire are working when i turn the car on. maybe around ten minutes later or so the left side kicks in. could it be because i have a weak audio cable that isnt conducting well enough until the car warms up? i had crutchfield install my amp and sub about two months ago and was wondering if it was a weak connection with my headunit or does it have anything to do with connections with the amp?

by the way, if anyone is lacking bass in their crossfire, i highly recommend the custom fiberglass sub box from wickedcas.

Question Re: bad speaker cable?

Has anyone figured out how to fix this or what is causing it? My car feels so ghetto when this happens.

Check the connector that goes into the back of th radio. They aren't in there all that tight and I noticed that I could make my speakers cut out when I wiggled the connector. You'll need a pair of those little knife edge tools to pull the radio out but you can get a set for less than $5.00.

Maybe you could swing by a car stereo shop or a dealer and ask to borrow them for a couple of minutes.
