Planar/panel speakers to replace Carver Amazings

Thanks guys! Robjerman, where is Madisound? My preference would absolutely be to have them repaired and just keep them. I did some research into that a while back, and I didn’t really get anywhere. Too bad you are not closer to MO. 

Thanks ctsooner.

Thanks again ctsooner. I’ll contact them and see what they can do. Thanks also for your speaker suggestions.

Thanks bdp24! I’ll check them out.

Thanks guys for all the helpful responses. Tomic601, I did in fact correspond with Carver himself many months ago, and in fact it seems there is no factory support for these speakers; he mentioned one person he knew of who might be doing repairs, but I think he had quit doing it. I found one other hobbyist (in NC if I recall correctly) who said he could try it but strongly recommended that if I could live with it he way it is to do so.

Thanks all. A lot of valuable input here. I don’t know anything about Kingsound, but I will do some reading about them. I was listening to the Carvers last night, and they really sound good on most music. But I think repairing the problem speaker is just not going to be possible. I’m grateful for all the helpful advice as I seek an appropriate replacement.

Have you guys heard or owned the Carvers? I’m wondering how the other speakers we have been discussing sound in comparison? Thanks. 

 Thanks everyone for the continued discussion and input. Very enlightning. As I keep listening to the speakers in the context of this system, I keep marveling at just how good they sound. I really am very happy with them other than the occasional vibration at particular high frequencies. It’s a frustrating situation! On top of that I like the way they look. And, mine are in really good condition. 

Wow, phaselinearguy! I will do that. Thank you!!!

Thanks Batman. I’m enjoying them very much. I think  getting them fixed is not going to be easy; I tracked down all these leads and the upshot is that I won’t mess with them unless the issue gets worse. The fix could make them worse. I am interested in the active crossover. How would one implement that? I don’t intend to part with mine either!

Thanks erik.
