One Channel of Magnepan Mini Maggie sounds lower than the other

As per the title, the output of one channel of the high frequency panels is much lower that the other. The difference between the two high frequency panels is considerable such that I have to compensate this by using the balance knob in the preamplifier with several clicks! Anyways I would like to know if there is something I can do to fix this unbalance problem with the high frequency problems. Hope someone can point me in the right direction in order to solve this issue.  

Thanks in advance for your help!

Deox all your connection points on that speaker,or you will build up a form of resistance from oxidation of combined metals, Maggies did have a bad problem with the voice coils separating from the diaphragm and that i understand was because of the adhesive used, now i understand they have fixed the problem, i had a pair and sent them into get rebuilt and it cost me, when they came back they rattled so bad i gave them to Goodwill after waiting 6 weeks to come back home, now my Acoustats get all the love. and now with Covid 19 I love them more!!!
