    Diatone Cloth Surrounds - Help needed

    Dear AK Members, I have acquired a pair of Diatone speakers and the cloth surround are still supple, but starting to show-case signs of stiffening up. I have read that particularly speakers of the Diatone brand name require an "oil" treatment every so often in order to keep the surrounds nice...

    Help with Yahoo Auctions Purchase / Japan

    I'm not certain what Diatone used to maintain the "softness" of their cloth surrounds, but a lot of posts on youtube and in numerous forums refer to this fancy "oil" treatment. I'll see to it that I find a suitable alternative or perhaps someone who's had experience with the matter. Thank you...

    Is there nobody that could possibly help or have I posted this call for help in the wrong sub-forum?

    Help with Yahoo Auctions Purchase / Japan

    Dear AK-Members, I'm not certain if I'm posting this thread in the right sub-forum and I apologize for any inconveniences caused thereof. I am in need of some help regarding a product that I'd like to purchase on Yahoo Auctions Japan. I'd like to purchase some "special" oil for the...

    You can also send an e-mail to Guido Sinigaglia ... he lives in Roma E-mail address: sinigaglia.guido@alice.it He should have an extra 2 surrounds (as he purchased 4) that I helped him purchase from Viethung. Theoretically, he just needs 2 surrounds, so the 2 should be extra. You guys live in...

    I don't know if he will reply to you by e-mail. I usually contacted him directly via the Forum (you should take a minute to sign up) and he usually answers within 24 hours with no problem :) Payment is possible using PayPal. The surrounds cost $65 and the shipping takes about 2-3 weeks (perhaps...

    Hi Ivano. You can purchase foam surrounds from Viethung over at the VNAV Forum. http://vnav.vn/forum/index.php If you need help, let me know. The man has surrounds for the Yamaha NS-2000s. These need to be adjusted lightly as stated in the thread you probably consulted. If you need help, let...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    I'm not surprised the foam deteriorated. No worries. I'm not so sure about the glue they used back then. You could consult with a local repair shop or order one from the internet. That's what I did. I am not certain as to what "foam" gasket you are referring to??? (picture please) The only...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    If you look at Roberts post (Brinsmead) (post #149 from 04/19/2015), you'll see that there was some sort of "Service Info E129" which was issued, calling you to modify the Network on the NS-1000(M) using a breaker and NP Cap ... you'd have to ask Robert for a scan / better scan of that manual as...

    very cool. i bet a lot of people did not receive this service info, which is why a lot of the NS-1000's have blown tweeters :(

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    There is no greater satisfaction than seeing some happy people on this forum. Music can bring people together like nothing else :) Robert, get your NS-2000s up and running. You can pry away the rubber gasket with your bare fingers. I promise there is no way they will tear, snap, be damaged in...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    That is not quite accurate .... If you refer to my post #21 on this thread, you'll see that I own (or rather used to own :tears: ) a pair of Onkyo SC-1500, which is the European equivalent to the Onkyo Monitor 2000X that was being sold in Asia at the time. The only difference is the wooden...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    Rough indeed, but I'd be more concerned about the housing (?) Why build NS-2000 clones and not just part out the pieces which could bring in some cash as well... ?

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    That's weird ... why does that structure look like that of a cloth surround? My new surround runs only into the v-shaped crease ... that's it. This one kinda wraps back around toward the center and voice coil.

    Calling All Yamahas. Time to Post Your Pics

    Actually, NS-2000's sell regularly for over 2000€ here in Germany. In the past 6 years, I haven't seen a pair sell for less (besides the one I acquired ;) ) Mark, your Deltas and the Centennial Components are amazing!

    Calling All Yamahas. Time to Post Your Pics

    My budget is very small, at best. I've really been blessed and essentially traded up with every purchase and sale I made. To put it in perspective, the NS-2000s and Marantz DC1300 (combined!) cost me less than what a Pair of NS-1000s sell for on ebay :thmbsp: Therefore, more luck and good...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    Hey Robert, here's my take on the matter... I'm gonna lean out the window and say that those are cloth surrounds. I have a pair of JVC (Victor) SX-911 lying around which I acquired recently. You'd be hard-pressed to tell me the difference in person as to whether those surrounds are cloth...

    Calling All Yamahas. Time to Post Your Pics

    Thanks for the feedback. I really consider myself quite fortunate. Started this crazy hobby a few years back right before starting college and after going through JBL L100Ts, L112, L150A, 4312, Onkyo SC-1500, JVC SX-911 and Tannoy Arden, I finally acquired the NS-2000s. I highly recommend all...

    Yamaha NS2000 Surrounds

    Hello everyone, I'm sure that I can organise a few surrounds for all of you. Please just PM me (with amount of surrounds needed, possibly your address) or post something here so that I can figure out how many surrounds to order exactly. I hope it won't be too much of a hassle. Please note that...
