IRS Beta -- help


Calling on all and sundry for pointers, info, etc on repairing the EMIM (electro-magnetic midrange) on a pair of IRS beta.
Either repair or find NOS.

Appreciate any ideas & all help. Thanks

I'd give Bill Legall of Millersound a call at (215) 412-7700.

Although he known most for some serious Vandersteen upgrades, Infinity is his true passion. I doubt anyone has done more Infinity work than Bill. He's done a lot of work to the EMIM and EMIT drivers in his own IRS Beta and IRS V to make them better performing, better sounding, and more reliable.
i agree with trelja!!! i know bill myself. he rebuilt the mid/tweeter panels of my infinty 1b's and they are now like new and bullet proof (well,just about) his work is top notch and afforable to boot. you cant pass it by. tell him MR T sent ya. good luck

I was the guy on the AudioKarma site who started the project with Graz Keet of Apogee (I have RSIIb's). Currently, he is examining various EMITs and EMIMs which several of us at AK have sent to him (he is in Australia). He seems excited to make new diaphragms for us and should soon be making prototypes for testing. He feels he can improve both the sound quality and reliability of the diaphragms using more modern materials and CNC machining.

If you are interested in contacting him, his email is:

info@apogeeribbons.com

He intends to make all of the versions that are in demand, so if you have a particular type of EMIT or EMIM you need, you may want to contact him and let him know.
Thanks everyone. Made a few calls as suggested and, magically, solved the problem (used a hair dryer on the membrane)!
