Great point: if a channel goes out, never hook up the other speaker! Maybe the amp has blown/damaged the speaker, and when you hook up the other of the pair, that one will be also blown. And vice versa: when you hook a blown speaker to the working channel, if it shorts the channel, the OPT will be damaged.
Always keep a pair of RS speakers (or plain drivers) to hook them up if you suspect something.
good luck,
