Martin Logan Ascent question - Please Help


I am looking at a pair of supposedly almost new ML Ascents. One of them had part of the Mylar sheeting bunched up. Will this effect the sound? and Is there A way I can correct this problem? I can get a good deal on them but what good is it if they wont sound right. Thanks

i would think that the mylar being bunched up would affect the sound . i would check to see if there was any warranty first. otherwise call logan to see what that panel cost. good luck.
Kirk's advice is good. Martin Logan sells their panels at reasonable prices. Get the serial numbers off the panels before you call, they may be in warranty (although it does not sound like a manufacturing defect to me) or you may only need to replace the one panel. Jim Powers at Martin Logan can tell you for sure.
I own a pair of Ascents and agree with the others. Plan on having the panels replaced. You should be able to factor that into the purchase price if the seller is reasonable. It almost sounds like they were exposed to some extreme heat.
