Nakamichi CA-5, just what you are looking for "straight wire with grain".

Any help appreciated. Thanks, in advance.

I own one, got it repaired and upgraded by Stephen Sank. Would do it again, sounds heavenly!

I would recommend Stephen Sank, if you are still looking to upgrade/recap it. He did a marvelous job on my 300. Should be a good for another 20 years.

me too!

Have used Buyee for Yamaha drivers, worked out pretty inexpensive (even with shipping). Their service, packaging and shipping was great.

:beerchug:, happy for you. I recently cooked a NS1000X woofer and had magicmarksy fix it.

Worth the $$ and effort in the repair, IMO. I recently had Magicmarksy fix my NS-1000X woofer -- great experience, came back working as it should. Tweeter repairs may be difficult, suggest you buy replacements on that auction site. Selling the mids may be difficult, since they rarely ever die...

Welcome to AK, you are among friends passionate about this hobby!

Quick update ... and happy ending ... The epoxy on the voice coil bobbin expanded and bubbled up due to overheating (drove the speakers too hard, too long). Thankfully the voice coil was not cooked. Sent the woofer to Dr Michael Alan Marks, who fixed the epoxy coating, re-aligned the coil and...

One of my woofers on the NS-1000X (woofer model # is JA-3114), came stuck last night. Woofer is distorting, and when I try to push it in, feels sticky. Looking for advice from fellow AKers on how to fix this problem and recommendations on where to get this repaired. Thanks, in advance. HPK

Just got a pair of SS-M3's in great condition - functionally great, but cosmetically roughed up a bit. I am planning to refinish the veneer and redo the grills, which will require removing the drivers. Anything I should look for/update while the drivers are out? Also, I am looking to...

Welcome to the party!

Seller finally agreed to $325, picked it up over the weekend. Will set it up in the next couple of weeks.

Seller wants $600, which I feel is on the high side.

Folks, Looking for opinions on the M&K MX200 sub-woofer. I have the opportunity to buy one (seller claims its in good shape, despite its age -- 14 years), what should I pay for this? Thanks, in advance HPK
