Honda Legend Audio System Failure

Hi, I've got a 2005 Honda Legend with a gasoline engine, and the audio system has suddenly stopped working. No sound from any of the speakers. I've checked all the fuses, and they seem fine. Could a defective bass speaker really kill the whole system like this? Anyone else experience this?

Summary of the thread

A 2005 Honda Legend experienced a complete audio system failure, with no sound from any speakers. Despite checking the fuses, the issue persisted. It was suggested that while unusual, a defective bass speaker could potentially cause such a failure. After consulting a professional, it was confirmed that a faulty bass speaker had indeed shorted the entire system, leading to the problem.

Greetings. While it is unusual for a single speaker failure to completely disable an entire audio system, such a scenario is not entirely impossible. Has there been any recent work performed on the vehicle's electrical system, or any notable incidents such as a power surge or jump start? Moreover, are you certain that all connections to the head unit are secure? The audio system in that model is somewhat complex.

Thanks for the reply. No recent electrical work or jump starts. I did try to use a USB audio adapter through the auxiliary input recently, could a surge from that damage a speaker, and more importantly cause the whole audio system to fail like that?

It is plausible that an issue originating from an auxiliary input device could propagate through the system. Given the symptoms and the age of the vehicle, it is my professional recommendation that you consult with a qualified automotive electronics technician for a comprehensive diagnostic assessment. A thorough inspection is necessary to determine the precise cause of the failure and to prevent potential consequential damage to other components.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to a local shop, and it turned out that a faulty bass speaker was indeed the culprit, and it somehow shorted the whole system. Repair cost me 280€ Appreciate the help!
