I have a navy phono and want to rebuild the reproducer.
I need the diaphragm and gaskets. I have the gaskets but why not replace them while I have it open.
The gaskets are like thick rubber bands. If they are not brrittle "can" I use them still?
Otherwise I will need the metal? foil? diaphragm and gaskets.
Thanks

Kind of embarrassed to admit it, but I have used a piece of aluminum pie tin and actually, it sounded really good. No harm in trying it. BONUS: You get to eat the pie!!!

Re: Wanted: diaphragm
Check with Ron Sitko. He should have the gaskets and diaphragm. Don't forget to give him the dimensions.

Thanks Travis, Looks like someone messaged you about it.
I am watching the one on eBay but figured I would check to see if anyone here would have something...

Re: Wanted: diaphragm
Kirk, I found a reproducer identical to yours in a box o junk. Only difference is my cover has a big "B" instead of the musical notes and staff. Only issues are that the rubber coupler is toast and somehow someone broke the needle chuck off the needle bar... without damaging anything else. I pulled the cover and the diaphragm looks perfect. Cost of postage for the whole shebang work for ya?OldRestorer wrote:Thanks Travis, Looks like someone messaged you about it.
