Hey I was just wondering if blown subs would work or not because i went to swap box and used the connections that i got at radio shack (which were the wrong size) and then my subs just shut off. Amp still works because it got bench tested at best buy, but subs have no power. Do i need to get new or am i just stupid. All connections are now tight

Depends on how they are "blown". When you push in on them, is it stiff and make distinct scraping noise/feel? If not, check your tensil leads and make sure they havn't torn or fried.

I pushed them in and it did the same like it would if they where not blown but and checked the leads and they are still good

are the rca's tight in back of your radio?To test the subs without an amp just hook them up one by one to your back speaker harness and test it.
