Post Subject: Vitavox S2: the end of the diaphragms war.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 8/22/2005

Whoever followed my bothersome experiments in search for a better diaphragm for Vitavox S2 driver knows that I lately spent quite a lot time trying to make the original metal suspension diaphragm to work. There are a LOT of advantages in those diaphragms and a lot of “issues” to use them. In the end, I have to declare my FAILURE to make the vintage metal diaphragms to work with S2 driver in the way, which I would consider acceptable. Because of my certain dissatisfactions with the S2’s metal cone I have returned my playback back the contemporary production plastic surround diaphragm (the way in which I’ve been using the S2 since the beginning: 3uF, 2700Hz electrical, 1000Hz acoustic, 106dB). It is nice to “return home” and learn my all my initial sentiments about the S2 driver are still standing….
