Problems with Infinity Prelude MTS mid-range


Has anyone else had problems with the mid-range driver on the Prelude MTS, (buzzing, dust-cap falling off etc.) I have now had three of the towers have issues, especially distortion with piano pieces.

Magnus,

Thanks for the information. Hope the replacement 3.5's have the problem resolved. I will contact my dealer and see if he will do the same for me. As I live in the U.S. where the customer services the company instead of the other way around, I will probably have to replace the speakers myself. I have the complete surround system and two MTS w/ sub for a dedicated room. Every 3.5" driver has a problem now except one. Listening to a pair of Audioengine 2's instead of surround right now, and bought a pair of Dunlavy's for the dedicated room. Perhaps the New Year will find working Preludes again as they are excellent sounding speakers.
I have this problem with my midbass. Has anyone managed to repair them in a repairshop? (not infinity) Since i hear the problem is with some peeling, i thought maybe it could be cleaned, and thus repaired.

Has anyone tried/done this??
Well, I have Infinity Prelude Compositions since I think 2002, and I hope these problems don't crop up. I really like them a lot. They're especially good with low powered SET, better still if you can give them just a little more juice. The Cary V12 and Cary 300B are wonderful with the built in sub (25hz). The Primaluna Dialogue One I own also performs well, my brother's Leben CS660 is really a nice match. I always wondered why more people with moderate low-powered amps were not purchasing speakers such as the Prelude Compositions? These speakers cost about $3,400.00 back in 2002. Good luck solving issues, HK sucks for not owning up.
I change MTS for a pair of Tyler Acoustics D1 last year, GREAT DECISION. Didn't missed them.
They had more problems every day, first the mids, then one sub, then...
If you need spare mids or anything, let me know, I can sell them. The only problem is that I live in Ecuador and shipping will be expensive. I have 3 subs, 2 tower and a center speaker.
HI,

Does anyone know the part number for the 3.5" CMMD midrange driver and if they can still be purchased? I'm getting distortion during piano pieces on one of my towers.

Does anyone know if the midrange drivers can be repaired?

Too bad because I really like the sound of these speakers
