Query: Problems with these speakers. Stopped working

I got these speakers with a Gateway system about 8 years ago years ago, and I liked them okay. Then about 4 yrs ago I found a pair of bigger speakers for only $10 at an estate sale, and they had better sound, so I began using them instead, and put the BA system in my closet. Well, this week, one of my 'newer' speakers crapped out.So I went back and my BA system out of the closet, set it up -- and nuthin. No sound. I checked and re-checked all of the hook-ups and outlets and power source, etc, and still no sound at all. Why would they just stop producing sound?Is it because they sat dormant for 4 years? That seems weird. Any suggestions on what the problem might be or if it is worth getting them "repaired?"thanks
