New Magnaplanar 1.7 delaminating and buzzing.


Why are new diaphrams buzzing and seperating from the frame?

It seems to me that this broken delaminating pair of 1.7s were bought used, and this reminds me that sometimes when this stuff happens buying used gear can be pretty risky and be a real headache.  Magnepan will hopefully honor the warranty if it still applies to the used speaker owner.

Troidelover1499  -  why are you saying this? They are brand spanking new speakers and you are talking about the risks of buying used. Read first, process, then comment.

Maybe Troidelover1499 said that because the 1.7s haven’t been made for a few years. As a new poster, you may not get much sympathy for calling out someone trying to help! I think I bought mine in 2011 for under CAD2000. How did you buy them new? Are you sure you don’t mean 1.7i ???

Hi ddd1,  as a NEW poster, as if that should make a difference, I meant no disrespect to 1499 but it was  plainly stated that they were brand new 1.7's. I didn't say 1.7 S - I said new 1.7. Of course they are are 1.7i's because they are brand new and  that's why in Canada they cost $3200.00 plus 13% tax. You assumed I stated 1.7s speakers. I was merely   inquiring as to anyone  else experiencing the quasi ribbon diaphragms  ungluing on new brand new speakers.
