Yamaha ns 500m

Hi, I'm new here and I have a stupid question. I have a pair of yamaha ns 500m that I love . Recently one of the mids started making a rattle at lower volumes. I can't find a replacement and I was wondering if I could use the mids from a set of ns 1000m ? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I believe the NS1000 has the beryllium-dome midrange and tweeter, but the 500M has the bd tweeter only; not sure if its mid is the same as the one on the NS690.

From I have found and read on line the ns 500 and ns 690 have the same mids . But I can't seem to find any used or new replacements for them . The ns 1000m is the beryllium mids as you have stated. The ns 500m is 6ohm and ns 1000m is 8ohm . I have found several set of the ns 1000 mids . And I was trying find out if I replaced both mids with the beryllium would I have any problems or would it ruin the sound because of the ohm difference and the crossover being at little different.
