In the Thread: Yamaha ns1000m speaker problem
Post Subject: Yamaha ns1000m speaker problemPosted by Bill on: 5/20/2023
These were my first high end speakers purchased in 1980. They have been sitting in my basement for about 30 years as I've gone through everything from VMPS super tower 2 ar's to B&W 800 to my self built Edgar horns, which I’ve been using for about 20 years. As I’m getting ready to go to retirement community, I brought up the Yamaha’s from the basement to see how they sound. Happily, the beryllium mids and tweeters sound great. Unhappily the both 12 inch woofers have lost about 20 dB of volume compared to the other drivers. The crossovers seem fine and the drivers look normal, so suspect it could be due to demagnetization. Any ideas as to how this could have occurred and any ideas as to whether it is repairable, and if not, where could I get replacement drivers for them.Hanks, Bill
