found a Crown 1400 CSL 700w amp in attic and put plug to tv Audio out. i hd cable to tv via basic laptop.?
and downloaded app VCL w/ equalizer all settings to push music out to small cheap speakers and something happened to speakers. now i get half the sound but still able to muff the crackling sound via VLC Spatializer tab. should i attempt to open speakers see damage? to fix?
just happened to have an 3' cover adapter, you know the the old school fat plug.
a nice 5 minutes of sound then a slow deterioration until nothing until they cooled.

700W AF OUTPUT IS A LOT OF POWER THAT REQUIRES SPEAKERS LOAD AT LEAST 1000W TO AVOID TOO MUCH POWER BURNING DOWN THE SPEAKERS.
POSSIBLE NOW MOST YOUR SMALL SPEAKERS WERE ALL BURNT AND SHORTED,THAT WAS WHY CRACKING SOUND COMES OUT FROM BURNED AND DEFORMED SPEAKER VOICE COIL.

TV audio output goes to amp inputs. Speakers connect to amp speaker outputs. That is a very powerful amp and you would not want to connect small home stereo type speakers to and and crank up the volume. You will damage them. You need large speakers that can handle that kind of power.
It is also possible that the amp itself has some type of issue. Take it to any store that sells PA equipment and have them test it (Guitar Center?).
