I blew my back speakers and I figured what happened was the two wires inside the things came unconnected due to too much bass. But, I was told that they don't work anymore because the paper in them became ripped. Which is it? Could it be one or the other?

Blown: As in speaker term... Damaged Working Speaker...
Cone is damage where it can't do it job anymore
Coil is damaged where it can't make good sound quaility
Also can be Both at the same time.....

if the speaker is factory it probably has torn surround "paper going to the center of speaker". This is called blown sometimes, but sometimes it can mean that to much power ran to the speaker and over powered it causing the voice coil to melt. A voice coil is simply a wire usually made of copper, or aluminum wrapped around a magnet. Also, a factory speaker has connectors that sorta pop into place so they can't just come unconnected.

Technically it's either a burned voice coil or the voice coil assembly has come apart from the cone of the speaker.

The paper has ripped , you can take some silicone and repair them . They wont be as good as they were new , but ok . Sounds like you need better speakers anyway.

Usually it means that the paper ripped. But if you see smoke it means that it shorted out somewhere.
