MARTIN LOGAN SOURCE Issues.

[Marcintosh]

Hello everyone,
I am writing to you from Belgium. I am using a translator, so please excuse my poor English.
I bought a pair of used Source speakers, thinking I was getting a good deal. However, when I got home, I realized that one of the two Sources was playing at a lower volume than the other. I have read a lot on this forum, and I first cleaned the stators, but the problem persisted. A friend suggested that I swap the stators, but the result was the same. I can conclude that the stators are not the issue. I am convinced that the DC voltage applied to the diaphragm of the speaker playing at lower volume is not high enough.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE VALUE OF THE DC VOLTAGE APPLIED TO THE DIAPHRAGM OF A SOURCE SPEAKER?
Thank you for reading, and take good care of your Martin Logan speakers.
Marc

Hi Marc, I am new owner of ML as you were. And first thing I did was to write to them directly. And what a fantastic service I got from them. All of your questions will be answered in a single e-mail. This is their e-mail: [email protected] , and I was answered by their Brian Bailey. Very pleasant surprise for time of reply and expertise.. You will get honest answers first hand, with schematics, guidance in photos, more than you expect. Rgds - Darko
