I have an old pair of JBL J320 speakers that don't sound right....there aren't any mids or highs--they just sound like mud. Based on appearances, they're almost in mint condition....I took them apart and couldn't see anything wrong with the wiring...I've tried them out with different receivers (all of which I know work properly because they run other speakers fine), and with different speaker wire....nothing helps...Any advice?
