I have a model c with a bad diagphram and I have access to a copper, mica and glass diagphram and I wanted to know which will sound the best?
Thanks,
What is the best model c diagphram material?

Copper will sound the best with molded cylinders. Earlier reproducers intended to play brown wax used glass diaphragms.

does the same apply to model H 4 min reproducers? Is it still better on blue amberols etc? Thinking of rebuilding 2 of my H's.VintageTechnologies wrote:Copper will sound the best with molded cylinders. Earlier reproducers intended to play brown wax used glass diaphragms.

I have never seen anything but a copper diaphragm used in a model H, so there's your answer!
