Default rear speakers inop

hey all i just got a 2000 s10 blazer LT. I just took out the old radio and installed my kenwood i noticed that the rear speakers dont work at all while adjusting the fade to the rear. I took off the door panels and checked the connections and everything looks good. Could the speakers just be completely blown or is there a fuse for them. Thanks for the help

front speakers are interconnected (doors and dash if you have).... never seen a 6 channel stereo.... except for surround sound. replace the rears and youll be all set.

People at best buy are idiots LOL!

There is no fuse for the rear speakers, they are probably blown, I would replace them.
If you are looking for a good, well price replacement, Go with pioneer, You can find them for great prices on amazon.

You could safely run your dash, front door and rear door speakers off of your head unit. I've never seen a 6 channel head unit, and I've been working with car audio for about 19 years. I've seen 5 channel head units.
