I should have included the fact that I am in Minneapolis. Magnepan is about 30-34 minutes away.
Maggie 1.6 noise
Good morning. I've been wrestling with noise coming from the right channel of my stereo. When the needle hits the record it almost sounds like a rock-tumbler (but much quieter). Started trying to isolate the source including replacing the cartridge (different story). After switching tubes, amps, turntables (same problem), sources (pretty quiet when streaming), I happened to move the right Maggie a little without music playing and there was the sound. This time it was more of a rattle seemingly from the top left (non-treble) side of the speaker. Dealer wants about $500 just to open the bad boy up! They are at least 15 years old. Have moved a few times (always boxed). The question is . . . repairable? Is it worth it with what appears to be a lot of well reviewed speakers on the market? I have an Audio Research vi 55 integrated. I play a lot of records on a VPI Scout (Karat cartridge). THANKS IN ADVANCE for your consideration.
