probably the amp.

if you're into electronics, and do not have a warrantee, open the amp and see what happened.

try with 1.5V battery on the speaker wires to see if the speakers are still ok (+ pole, one wire, - pole other wire, and when you connect the other wire you should here a silent pop, like when you gently hit the cone with a finger. if it does that, speakers are ok)
