Cell foam in TAD 2001 back chamber

[superlian]

I have a TAD 2001 where the foam is old and loose. Does anyone know where i find such foam?
And what kind of glue do i use towards the dark grey felt mat?

Try 30PPI foam, attach with Weldbond.

Isnt that foam stiff?
The foam inside the driver should be soft.

If you read the description, it's flexible to fit air filters, etc.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Hi everyone

I am reviving this old thread as I encounter the same problem on my TAD 2001. Any idea, have you Superlian tested the solution proposed by djk ? Does not seem to exist manufacturer spare part as for headphones.

Probably the best available foam for the compression driver rear chamber would be basotect (melamine), much higher absorption coefficient than 30 ppi open cell foam.

Hi Guys
Thanks, Basotect seems a great idea, it exist in 1cm height. I have to check if appropriate thickness. Actually, I was surprised not to see more posts/information on these issues that must happen to many owners of compression drivers
