Just to rule out the obvious, but have you checked the connections or tried replacing the speaker wire?

yes double checked them and even swapped over cables and problem still persist...i think the main driver has had it im hoping ,,it ok with the volume low but turn it up and give it bass it starts to break up

Sounds like you've blown the driver alright. They are a budget brand and obviously don't have the same volume capacity as other brands. I blew a set of KAM speakers in a similar manner years ago. Id recommend alto for a mid range alternative. the maxim 'You get what you pay for' is very true for speakers.
