Dealer panel Price very doubtful!

you guys are crossing bridges before you get to them. I would take my chances on the panels the round about way you may have no problems at all.

Fishman has a point, I have read this forum almost daily for almost 3 years, and don't recall anyone ever have panels go out except for age. It's almost always the power supplies that go out prematurly.

There's been a few - I myself had an issue with a crinkled panel. When I posted about it, there were several others that either had or were experiencing the same thing. I've also seen a few people post about it since then.

I also remember one instance of a panel with glue that had come unstuck, and maybe an issue with a bent one also.

amey01 is correct you could still have problems but I am a gambling man you may not be. I think if people kept most of this to themselves Martin Logan may be a little more forthcoming with help on out of warranted items or things that are in the gray area as this subject is but as it seems every time someone has a problem they publicly document it with text and pics and the entire interaction with Logan this would make me much more conservative to the "rules" as a manufacture. just my opinion but sometimes a manufacture will help you anyway even if you did not go threw the full retail chain of command just to keep you as a customer but if they think you are going to blab your mouth to everybody they may not as they could loose the backing of the bigger HIFI dealers.

Actually I am still trying to get over the sticker shock before making a decision BUT I am concerned as anything can and will break and with the luck I am having at this present time.......................

Thank God they still sound really good or I would be very disappointed.

I have thought of talking to my local dealer that is conected to Plurison and see if he can do something but I doubt it. I am trying not to make a drama out of this but I still don't get a 100% mark up!

To comment on your "comment", I am not trying to publicy declare anything here and especially NOT Martin Logan but only Plurison the distributor! What I am trying to do is make sure people are aware of a company that is taking advantage of a situation. Being vocal about being ripped off is the right thing to do! Sounds like you work for them!

You should make sure that your local dealer (Filtronique?) is aware of this, and he should also be beating up Plurison.

No bernard it is not Filtronique in Montreal but my dealer sells more high end JmLab (Focal) speakers percentage wise than anyone in the province so he does have some power. I did discuss it with him and he said he was going to talk to a different person as he also thought this was extremely strange and very expensive! I will wait and see I guess!
