My bass speaker (the big one) was working then all of a sudden it just stopped. You can still hear a little bit of bass in the little speakers if i turn up the volume on the big one but no sound comes out of the big one. i got a screw driver and opened it up but i dont knwo what to do to fix it.
Are you saying that the woofer (big one) is connected to the same speakers in the same unit? Or is the Woofer on it's own?
If it is connected, then one of two things has happened. First the coil or connection to the speaker has broken or gone. The connection can easily be fixed with solder.
If it is the coil, then what you need to do is isolate the speaker from the rest. Then get a 1.5 volt battery and connect one end to one of the speaker connections and then the other end of the battery to the other, but for only a short time. If the speaker is working then the cone should move and it should pop. If it doesn't do either the speaker coil or speaker has failed and my guess is you will need to buy a replacement. If it does pop then it's good.
Your next step is to look at the crossover unit that connects all the speakers. Again check the connection wires and make certain they are good. You will see some large Inductors and capacitor(s) these control the bass section. You could replace the capacitor, it's likely to be a none polarised one. But check the inductor over too. It could have a bad connection.

Make sure that you got 12v 1.0 A adapter. Not .01 A. They have one at newegg.com atrix DVCPA1AA power adapter-12v 1.0 A. you should not need drivers for speakers. Make sure you got it pluged into right port if you got the adapter. Also make sure under control panel under sound that you got it setup for two speakers.

go to the control panel, go to the sound device icon,
select the audio tab, and under audio playback you should be able to change the speakers.
thanks adi

Connections without soldering it does not give proper conductance to the speakers and the integrated audio is good enough for headphones but to get good sound you need an amplifier to increase the output. Alternative is to add a good sound card like 'Aureal' or Yamaha or Creative plus so many available mow in the market and neither are they expensive...........sodeep

Are the speakers battery-powered (with dead batteries?) or AC-powered (but not plugged-in) ?
Do the speakers work correctly when connected to some other desktop or laptop or iPod ?

Is this for a computer setup? If so, the sub(big speaker) should be attached to the system via a cable of some sort, most likely a cable with pins. Check these pins and make sure they are still lining up correclty, then check the port and make sure there are no obstructions in it. If both of those are fine and you have the speaker opened up, check for any loose wires or things like that. Also try and see if you smell an electrical burn-type smell. If you do, it may mean it's retirement time for this set-up. I had someone force my sub speaker connection once and they bent the pins. It took a decent while, but I got a tiny flathead screwdriver and some tweezers and fixed the location of the pins. The speaker worked marvelously after that.
