Nah, just:
1) put on some music at a low volume & turn off the amp
2) disconnect the main speaker wire from the main speaker terminals
3) make sure the speaker wire tips don't touch!
4) turn on the amp (repeat step 3)
5) touch the speaker wire ends directly to woofer terminals inside the speaker (repeat step 3)
6) listen: bass or no bass (repeat step 3)
7) turn off the amp (repeat step 3)
See mom - no smoke!
