Infinity RSM No Bass/Sounds Shrill

While using my Infinity RSMs today, a friend ran past one speakers, and it fell face down into the ground. That speaker is fine, and plays sound well following the fall, but now the other speaker that did not fall sounds awful. It only plays bass for 1-2 seconds and then sounds very shrill/quiet.I checked the fuse of the speaker which is fine, and swapped channels on my amplifier as well as tested another amplifier to verify the problem persists regardless of amplifier channel/amplifier. The speaker that fell sounds fantastic on all channels of all my amplifiers, but the one that did not fall sounds terrible (quiet and shrill) regardless of amplifier/channel. Does this sound like a capacitor within the crossover that was damaged? The fuse tests fine as well.

Have you tried jiggling the cap on the fuse while music is playing? It's possibly just a loose connection, hopefully.

The fact that the other speaker is the one with damage is strange. I wonder if the fall somehow caused a slight electronic back-wave that fed through to the other speaker and fried something?
