The soundcard or the speakers?

Over the last couple of days, I have this unusual problem with getting sound out of my right satellite speaker (Cambridge Soundworks ACS 75 ? I think). Whether I'm playing MP3's, games, or whatever it doesn't matter. Sometimes the sound from the right speaker is nearly non-existent, while the L side is fine, and then the R speaker seems to "fade" up to normal volume. I've checked all connections and they seem to be fine. The soundcard is a Soundblaster Live! value model. Any ideas? 😕
 
sounds like youve got a bad speaker.... I would strongly dought that it would be something with your sound card. I woundnt think that you should have problems with a Cambridge but if you have a friend that will let you test out a set of there speakers on your computer then that will anwser your problem.
 
Here's a quick test you might be able to try to determine the culprit. Plug in the speakers to a sterosystem and see if it still happens. Just take the plug that's plugged into the soundcard jack and plug it into the headphone jack instead.

Hope that helps

It turned out to be the sound card after all. I have since replaced the Live with an Audigy and I'm quite happy. Thanks to all for the help/suggestions.
