Hmmmmmm, interesting.
Maybe first driver pic ever!
ATH M9 (1987)
Hmmmmmm, interesting.
Looks about the same as the M9X.
I wonder what the differences are.
Expose of Ibasso SR1 driver
It did not.do you know if the original mdr-r10 biocelly driver had a suspension system similar to the above and the Foster drivers or like this (below)
It did not.
The concept of a silicone/rubber suspension is a relatively new 'innovation' for headphones.
AFAIK Sony has only ever made 2 'headphones' with drivers that have suspension surrounds.
• VIP-1000
• PFR-V1
Although, realistically they both use something more like 'normal' miniaturized loudspeaker drivers, and I don't think they should be compared directly with the more modern proper headphone drivers.
CheersOh forgot to compliment your youtube reviews!
Really had a good few laughs watching some of them.
Couldn't help but wonder if you'll ever review that DX1000 , I bet you don't want to open that up again. Though IIRC you had some pics of them earlier in this thread.
Also was cool you did the review on the Beyer Sound JEWEL. The resonance issue can be remedied by those yellow discs to some degree that you see in those vintage Japanese headphones. I believe it's micron glass (according to Sony). But you were dead on about those edt100 pads! I'm using 1540 alcantara on mine.
Also, was shocked by the MINT hd450 II drivers and overall design. Had no idea it was so sophisticated.
Keep it up
Looks very similar to my M9X! I have pics of it somewhere in this thread. I think the diaphragm in my one has a slightly greyish tint which would probably be that ceramic coating.
Maybe first driver pic ever!
ATH M9 (1987)
Oh I got one! and a CTX-1mk2, I should open that one.
Another first driver pic ever
Napolex CTX-3
I think CTX-1 is much better.
They said this are carbon coated driver.
Oh I got one! and a CTX-1mk2, I should open that one.
Because the CTX-3 looks like a generic paper cone driver
I'll open them up tomorrow morning, alongside another napolex~
Interesting! I have CTX-1 mk1 also, but driver seems to be bonded to housing very sticky.. So I gave up
I'm looking forward for your job!!
