    Re: Replacement 288G diaphragms

    I assumed ZXPC was an importer of chinese made parts, but when I saw the name Mei, it felt like a total chinese operation. I saw that email address and that supported that thought.

    A while back I got a bunch of small format Altec drivers. Many had bad diaphragms. I found by putting a diaphragm in them I could double my money. And I was very transparent that they had replacement Chinese diaphragms in them.

    If I still had those nowadays I could get at least double what I got for them then. It was around 2015

    Re: Replacement 288G diaphragms

    Well I bit the bullet and bought a pair. Probably a mistake because I won't test them in a driver; I wouldn't chance making a swap with a genuine Altec working pair. So I may have an unpleasant surprise if I really need them in the future. I'll at least check the dcr.

    I need to get some Radian diaphragms too. Both 1228 and 1225. Probably should get a pair and a spare of each.

    I did pick up a pair of the Radian 1228 for spares to my 902-8A and 802-8g a couple months back. Wish they also made diaphragms for the 288's

    Re: Replacement 288G diaphragms

    Good idea! I'll do the same

    - - - Updated - - -

    Now here this - Great Plains ACOUSTICS (now) is advertising diaphragms for 288's in 16 ohm flavor ... $160 each, 8 ohm $150...

    Thinks me may need to bite the bullet ...
