UPDATE: Fixed - Stereo problem SC-901 - Speakers have stopped working
"tech" was absolutely right! The fuses in the trunk were blown. For $20 my local stero shop fixed it! I couldn't be more impressed with the knowledge "tech" brings to this forum. He is incredibly generous and helpful!
======================================
Jumped in my 2000 C70, turned up the volumn on my stereo and was ready to rock... major problem - all of a sudden music only comes out of the center dash speaker. I have pressed the "mode" button that ordinary changes which speakers are active. It didn't help, the other 8 speakers don't make any noise at all. The stereo seems to be working fine otherwise (I can hear music in the center dash speaker).
Can anyone make a suggestion? Can this be repaired without replacing the whole stereo? If I do need to replace the stereo, do I have to replace it with the same factory model (it is a very odd size stereo unit) or are there other models that will fit. Any suggestion on where to purchase one? (I live in Houston)
Your help is greatly appreciated!

RE: Stereo problem SC-901 - Speakers have stopped working
Maybe you blew out the other speakers.
Also the headunit is considered a Double Din (DD), and some aftermarket companies make DD's but are not that great looking etc...
If your speakers are blown I suggest going aftermarket because Volvo will charge you an arm and a leg. Here is how I know, I blew out both of my rear dck speakers in my 1995 Volvo 850 n/a. Volvo wanted $150 per speaker to replace the blown ones. I went aftermarket and got more speakers for the same price and better speakers at that.

Dynaudio makes the speakers for the c70.............you are not going to get better than that!!
I truly doubt that all 13 other speakers blew and left only the centre channel on his head unit..............

i still prefer my jls over dynaudio there home entertainment equipments nice but there car equipment is not as good
i know in 01 i think it was the c70 won best car hi fi thu so yes there good but imagine all big names did standered audio installs alpine,jl etc the only ones i know of are nakamichi who do rolls royce
i stand by saying its the wiring because if you blew speaker would either be one speaker or all of them
