I used to work in a store which sold JBL speakers - you won't believe how common this problem is! The issue is simple to fix, though. Although you can plug all the cables in without any problem, if you inspect the connectors closely, you'll see that they're not round at the very end, but actually triangular. You can push all the cables in, but unless the triangular bit of molded plastic lines up properly with its socket you'll get a very pathetic sound. Try twisting the cables in their sockets whilst applying pressure to plug them in. You get a satisfying 'clunk' as they plug in. DO NOT HAVE THE SOUND ON WHEN DOING THIS. These speakers are LOUD and if you have them cranked up when you slot them in, you'll have a heart attack!
