Quad Esl 2905 reliability issues?

I have owned a pair of Quad 2905 for six years problem-free. These are my favorites amongst the high end speakers I have owned so far. But lately one of the panel start to buzz and pop 30 minutes into my listening session. Does it mean that I have panel failure? I am puzzled because I am sure I did not over-drive the speaker.

Mvp, I am not an expert on Quads but I have read that the panels can arc or short even if they are not abused. It seems to be a fairly common problem with them.

Maybe someone more knowledgeable can help you out.
