MARTIN LOGAN TRIPLES THEIR PANEL REPLACEMENT

Yes, what is/was the cost?

Depends on the model you have,ML has made many speakers with many different panels.To many to list.But the average price would be about $2k to $8K now.

How long does a esl panel last as long as the user does not overdrive them;I have soundlab m2's and my panels operate perfectly;when a esl panel starts going bad what will occur?

Glad I sold my Aerius-i. I loved those speakers but one had a weak panel and ML forces you to buy the pair. A few years ago the pair cost me $500 so I can't imagine what they are now. I also understand they want the panels to be matched, but that should be your choice as the owner. I only needed one, so they should not force you to buy a pair.

J_stereo, do you think an owner would then disclose that he was selling an unmatched pair of speaker panels? Would it matter to the resale market? I certainly don't know if it can be heard, I'm just curious. I agree that it should be up to the owner to decide, but he may not want to disclose this fact when he gets around to selling them.
