[QUOTE="marantz123, post: 856701, member: 16849"] Thanks FD. I hope this fixes it and then have to keep them in regular use and keep a few plants around to maintain a better moisture level. I somehow feel that im going to end up doing a full re-alignment (I.e spider and surround), have done it before and its very time consuming and careful work required, will go there if needed as these drivers are worth the effort. They were used in the AR17 and the AR4 and are well spoken of there. They really sound lovely with a naturally deep bass and depth of the excursions are impressive, hence cannot neglect them or let them fall to dust. The only thing is that they need a bit of power to get them going. 89dBm apparently. The air-suspension design is a bit power-hungry but shines once loaded nicely. Gotta hand it to Edgar Villchur and Henry Kloss for awesome work thats still raising eyebrows and seemingly would hold its place amongst the newer stuff out there. Wikipedia has some nice information about the Air Suspension design. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_Research Ta. Marantz123. [/QUOTE]
