Something is SEVERELY wrong. You can't get those cables out of your system fast enough...
Before removing them, turn off your amp and do the obvious things. Make sure that all connections are clean, tight, no shorts, etc... If everything checks out okay, take them completely out of the circuit and measure them with a multimeter ( if you have one and know how ). You should show "infinity" when going from + to - on one end so long as the cables are not touching on the other end. The next step is to make sure that the cables ARE touching at the other end as solidly as possible and measure again between the + & -. This should show a dead short or extremely low resistance.
If both cables pass these simple tests and there were no obvious defects or poor connections, these cables are simply "incompatible" with your amp / speaker combo. I do not suggest "pushing it" to see how or why this is happening. Try contacting the place of purchase and see what they can do for you. Sean
