Squashed(?) LRS

Hi folks,

I took delivery of my new Magnepan LRS today and noticed that one of the speakers looks like something pressed the outer cloth into the panel on the front side.

The cloth is actually stuck to the ribbon behind.
About 2 - 3 inches in from the each of the edges is where the cloth is pressed flat against the ribbons.

Magnepan is closed for the weekend. I left messages with both Eric Norgaarden and the main number about this.

Should I not hook up and play them?
Worried about damage from the cloth being stuck over such a large area (~80%).

Thanks

@OP,
Both audioconnection (John Rutan) and mofimadness have given you great information. 
Trust it implicitly, and congrats on the new speakers.

Glad to hear the speakers are working well.
Though I have Vandersteen, I would have opted for Maggies if I had the room. I can still remember being mesmerized by the sound they put out. And, that was 30 years ago.

I am not trying to offer any kind of evaluation as I am clearly not qualified/experienced/etc.
Hey, if you have a pair of ears, your experience is as good as any.

In any case, Enjoy!
