I've just started trying to figure out what to do with a pair of SMGa's. I bought them used 12 years ago. For the last 2 years they have become progressively muddier, but with no rattle. There looks like corrosion on the wires, both main panel and tweeker, but the wires haven't lifted off the mylar much. I wondered for a while if my amp was going, but it drives a pair of psb's to high volume with no problem.
I want advice more than to sell them. But since you were nearby (I'm in Madison), I thought I would respond.
Sounds like you're encountering the typical problem with older Maggies, the tweeter wire has corroded thus causing a loss of treble. Fortunately, its a very easy fix and Magnepan sells a kit for ~$50 shipped that'll do the job just fine.
You can read how to do it and see some pictures of the repair of some SMGas at the link below.
