Are Ron Sitkos Diaphragm and gaskets identical to what APSCO sells??...or are they different??

Those replicas sold by Ron (going by the photographs) look superficially authentic, but there is no way the cork damper made from compressed cork particles is going to be as stiff as an original slice of solid cork that was cut along the grain and then trimmed and sanded down to a tapered circle. They simply won't have the same effect.

Has anyone listened to make comparisons between the originals and those replicas?
