As some have suggested, they need some break-in time both physically and electrically. Actually, I'm of the believe that EVERY new speaker needs it, regardless of what a manufacturer says.

With ANY new speaker that comes into my living environment (be they hi-fi or musical instrument- I play bass guitar and do repair/modifications), I have two CDs that I run- one of ocean surf (it's much more pleasant than white/pink noise). I will usually run that for a full day or two.

My next step is to run a thunderstorm CD at a moderate volume. I usually run this for a full day on a Saturday while I'm out doing groceries, or in the past, lawn/yard work. That tends to take care of "limbering up" the woofers/panels. The differences from out of the box to 20-40 hours can be quite dramatic, and more so with Maggies...

BTW, Rkyo had a bunch of "Environment Series" CDs years ago, and that's where both the ocean surf and thunderstorm come from. You might find them on eBay. The good thing, like I said, is that they sure beat running noise generators all day long!

Cheers,
