effeD3s · 4th November 2009, 06:08 PM

hello everybody
I know this is rare find, but...
someone know where/how to find replacenent diaphragm of the D582 fostex driver. Duralumin.
Or (IF will fit, dont'know) the phenolic ones of the D586?

Or in other words:
Anyone interessed in a pair of Fostex H450 Horn + lenses

TIA

hi Saluti,

I had a pair of D582/H450's too, sold them because of the exact same reason, no available replacement diaphragms.

D586 diaphragms fit without a problem, but these are just as non-existant.

I did experiment with a JBL diaphragm in them, the voice coil fitted without a problem but wasn't really deep enough into the magnet assembly, the mounting ring didn't fit at all, I thought about making an adapter ring but didn't bother in the end....

Good look, they are nice paper weights.....

Hi Peter

sure, as paperweight are second to nothing.

You remenber the model of jbl diaphragm?
i noticed that the voice coil assembly is glued on the the diaphragm. With a new one, maybe is possible to reconstruct the voice coil on a right support and fix in place,
ok just a crazy idea to waste other time.
