Altec 604D diaphragm replacement

[beathunters]

hi to everybody
i recently acquired a very nice 604D for my mono system but the diaphragm (not original) sounds blown.
what would you advise for 16 ohms replacement?
there's a bunch of chinese ones that seem fit to later 8K,G 8 ohms units. there's the 16 ohms GPA one. any alternative?
thanks for your help?
;-D

Don't go near the Chinese replacements. Performance is too critical to play with in the coax configuration. Seems the only good replacements are GPA or Radian, with GPA being the preferred supplier.

I second GPA. My new 902’s from them are nothing short of amazing to listen to. Very nice build quality and very reasonable pricing especially given they are made in North America.
