You mean just open it and make sure they're moving while something is playing? I have not done a visual inspection of each driver but I also did not hear any unbalanced sound so if it failed in one tower, it would have failed in the other. But thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely check it out.

Nah, just stick your ear up near each driver and make sure sound is coming out.

That reminds me: my little boy cranked up the volume to the max when I wasn't looking. I hit play on some classical CD later and was it freakin' loud! Made the kid cry, but there wasn't a hint of distortion from my M60s. I was fairly impressed.

Yowch! This is why I've installed a piece of plexiglass in front of my stereo equipment. He can look, but he can't touch!

Of course, it's a minor pain to move it out of the way when I want to switch out the CDs in the changer, but the little extra work is worth my sanity, and ears.

I had thought about doing that, pmb. Did you just lean it up against the rack or is it attached somehow?
The AV rack hasn't been as big of a problem as I thought it would be...yet. He keeps turning the TV on and off though. I think he likes to see the little light in the button come on. We usually say "No" very sternly and then try not to laugh.
