wharfedale EVP-12P compression driver replacement


S&L

Recommended Posts

I have quite a few of these on loan to me, cheap but they do a job. a couple need diaphragm replacement. the problem is cost and fiddly-ness!

blue aran is the onlace I have found so far that stocks them - £30 for the diaphragm but it's a fiddle to fit since you have to wrap the tales through the driver housing and solder the ends to a terminal point that has spade ends. It's all a bit flimsy and rather than risk applying a soldering iron to a coil, I was thinking about adding a choclate block connector with diaphragm tails in and fly leads with spade terminals out. All a bit of a faff really - and will it stay secure? thoughts?

the alternative is to bite the bullet and buy the compression driver with diaphragm fitted £55., it's not really the compression driver, just half of it. and it's damned expensive for what is a budget box.

So what do we think? has anyone run across this or indeed does anyone have a cheaper source - driver reference D301 - which is for the old rectangular throated version.
