I bought my Ascent's used about a month ago. They sounded great at first, but one of them has recently demonstrated a buzzing sound at certain frequencies or when there is a lot of musical information. I took the old shop vac out and gave them a proper cleaning....no help.
So I called Martin Logan and spoke to a real helpful person named Jim. He said it is caused when too much air is being pushed in certain areas of the panel. He said I should be able to localize it by placing several fingers together and moving them slowly around on the back of the panels until I feel a difference in air pressure. He said that I should take a piece of clear shipping tape and put on the grill at that position and that this should solve the"kazoo effect".
Have any of you people heard of or done this?? BTW, a brand new pair of panels for my Ascent's are only $559....not bad!!
