Vienna Acoustics speakers help

Please help! 
I’ve recently purchased a pair of VA Beethoven Concert Grand Reference without testing/audition (stupid me) and the seller is ghosted on me. Brought home, hooked everything up. I hear no sound coming out from tweeters and midranges on both speakers but only sound coming out from woofers. I’ve tested with 3 different amps (DNA225, CJ2250A, and Parasound2250) and also changed out different cables too. Is the drivers or crossovers bad? Is fixable? Or maybe I didn’t connected it right? Any advices or inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Pull the midrange driver out and hook it up to an amp directly then work backwards towards the crossover network to see where signal is lost.

There might be a fuse in the crossover?

Are the jumpers on speaker terminals installed?  If it is a bi wire speaker, that would account for it.

beethovens don't have dual binding posts. I think you're going to have pull the drivers and test them with a multimeter.
