(01 Coupe) Radio/Speakers, on but no sound?

Hi all, I just bought a 01 Civic Coupe. (first Honda ever for me)

The seller had just installed new Pioneer speakers (all six, stock-replacments, in stock locations) and a new Pioneer head unit. I didn't like the looks of the head unit so I put the stock one back in last week. Everything seemed to work just fine. But a couple days ago, I fire it up, the speakers crackle and then nothing. No sound at all. Radio comes on as normal, but no sound. Tried it again today and the same thing. Little bit of crackle then nothing.

I'm NOT a stereo guy, but it seems to me it's a connection issue. And since it's also a global issue, I'd think it'd be the harness/connector in the back of the radio, but I plugged that in myself and know it's locked in nice and tight. So that makes me wonder if one bad (local) speaker connection would kill all the speakers? How can I go about finding this problem? Do I have to unplug each speaker (one at a time) and see if that works?

Please help, it's not fun driving with no stereo in a loud, noisy car. :(

One of the speakers might be grounding out. Make sure they were all installed properly, and are not touching any metal to metal.

If there's a short in the system, the stereo won't push any signal.
