At the very minimum you'll want to remove the cloth covering the panels which may include the connecting plates. From there take pics from top to bottom front and back INCLUDING the connection plate and the wires which connect to the speaker/crossovers; THIS IS IMPORTANT, reason being once you're done with the panel and you start reverse putting them back together you may notice a loose wire or three (never fails) and without the pic it'll be hard guessing where they connect to. And also we'll know what we're dealing with. Sounds like a Magnepan clone(?).

Next post a few pics here so we can get a better handle on them.

Do a visual, look for obvious loose copper wiring on the mylar.

Next fire them up so you can get an idea exactly where the buzz is originating from.

If it's a simple case of an unglued wire(s) you're in luck, all you'd have to do is remove the old glue from the wire and the small area on the mylar where it'll rest (small amounts of acetone works the best) and reglue them back down. Once you're at that point then we can help in more detail.
