All the pics of the diaphragm are not very revealing on the actual layout of the aluminium vis a vis the magnets. It is easier to see this relationship on the epsilon which gave me the inspiration to change it for various magnet layouts on my latest designs. Which are much more sensitive than my older ones. I will be rebuilding all my older designs about 30 altogether. Have to buy some more MDF. I already have the magnets in abundance, and I won't be using superglue or any other type, as I might have to do more rebuilds who knows?All the best Jer.

Yes it is hard to tell because it is hidden by the frame.
I have had to repair one of those loops that had opened up and rendered the bottom half completely dead, one time.

Henry,your projects inspire me very much!
Although I am working on ESL's at the moment,I did do alot of experimenting with this stuff back in the 90's and I have been thinking about lately of building some smaller desktop models as well.
I just need to get a new stockpile of magnets.

Keep on DIYing!!!!
