OK, so we suspect bad speaker. That's not unheard of and sadly more common than you might hope to find a bad speaker.

Primary cause was impurities in the magnet oxidize and just like zinc pest, it begins to deform and crumble. Because of the tight tolerance to the voice coil- this can rub through and short the voice coil. Any flaking or deformation are signs, but again from this time era, they can be bad and not be obvious, where others are plainly obvious and not yet shorted.

Worst case scenario- the bad speaker shorts the voice coil to frame ground= damaged audio amp IC on the PS2 board.
