Buzz in speaker - new Monitor 60

My brand new Monitor 60's arrived yesterday and are just beautiful.
They have an excellent "fit & finish" and sound delightful with good clarity and response throughout most of my hearing range.

Unfortunately, one Monitor has a speaker with a buzz at certain upper-low-end frequencies. I've switched the speaker to the opposite channel and the buzz persists.

It is distinctly the middle 5 1/4" speaker that will buzz - the other two speakers are good.

Since this is brand new, I would like to correct the problem, either myself, or through the repair process. Any help is appreciated.

    Sounds like it may be misaligned or blown. If it's new just return/exchange it. If you want to repair it, contact Polk CS and they will take care of it.

    Welcome to Club Polk Cloudy

    Those speakers have a hefty warranty on them...and Polk CService is the Best. Give them a call they'll probably just mail you a new driver in swift fashion, really!
