I would take it back on warranty and have them replace it because unless you are pumping 2500 watts through one single speaker there is nearly no way you are supposed to be able to knck that speaker out that fast...I thin someone screwed up in the install or the amp wiring.

The speakers blew before I got the subwoofer. I just wanted to know what could have made them blow.

So let me get this straight...the speakers that blew have been in your car for how long?
The subwoofer was installed on Thursday?
Do you have amps to the speakers that blew?
What head unit are you running and how high are the treble and bass gains set to?
Are you using the loud button constantly? because that can cause a lot of extra white noise in the system.
Is there any alternator hum or grounding noise going through the system?

2) Yes the subwoofer was installed Thursday.
3) No I don't have amps to the speakers that blew.
4) Click on the link for the HU:

I dont know what the treble and bass gains are set to.
5) I don't get what you mean by "am I using the loud button constantly. I have in set on Meduim, I never put it on high and never put it on low and I never turn it off. Should I turn it to low or turn it off? To me either way won't sound good. What is white noise?
6) No there is no hum or grounding noise.

Not sure why you would have blown relatively new speakers lie that though uness you were blasting it out a the time or they were cheap speakers....not saying they are cheap but lower end speakers usually don't last too long at all especially when powered.
How much power were you running through them?

Cean power does not come out of a head unit and if you are running it at high volumes then it magnifies the effect.
