Tip: The max point reward for answering a question is 15.
The 15 inch woofer is blown and you are hearing only the tweeter horn. I would definitely check that speaker on something else though, because the amps inside will also blow fairly easy, and you can't get parts for these. I would salvage what you can and move on. If both speakers work alone, check connections and amp. If you find that the 15 does work, then make an unpowered monitor. Behringer does not give any referencing of any parts. They have all special part numbers that you can't crossreference to find replacements. This is a marketing strategy to eliminate others from repairing, so you will buy another one. They think they would sell more but it just turns musicians away from their junk. The only piece of behringer equipment worth using is the FCB1010 controller and nothing else.
The setting of the volume controls bears LITTLE importance to the actual level the unit is being run at since one can send high levels INTO the units from the source. These are intended to be used in a studio for the audio engineer to listen to in a small room. They should really be no louder than a consumer BoomBox maximum.
A squeaking noise is not normal at a level such as mentioned however. You might see if the noise is from the speaker itself or possibly parts of the cabinet... Plastic parts are NOTED for squeeking and can be suitably lubricated.
Beyond that, since the units are new, you should be able to exercise your warranty.
Have you considered any of the Behringer cabinets that are recommended companion pieces for this mixer. For more expensive gear have a look at JBL cabinets. The EON series is good. Have a look at what other bands you know are using and listen to their sound to see if its what you like.
