DIATONE DS-10000 (1985) | 10000 Classic Magic

 

The DS-10000 was released by DIATONE in 1985 as the 40th anniversary model of the brand, a Mitsubishi brand. The DS-10000 is actually based on the DS-1000 released in 1983. This model was considered to have the highest potential in terms of overall performance. The arrangement of the drive units has been determined based on the results of the study of the acoustic radiation pattern by computer analysis in a laboratory, thus their position being considered optimal. The woofer unit used is a 27 cm diameter aramid honeycomb curved cone. This uses an aluminum honeycomb structure core and aramid, a high-strength, high-elasticity, low-density long fiber material, as the skin material. This is a Diatone unique diaphragm. The midrange unit and tweeter unit use a 50mm and a 23mm reinforced diffusion boronized dome diaphragm. All wiring in the system was done with extra-thick linear crystal oxygen-free conductors, and the wiring was done by crimping with gold-plated sleeves (metal fittings) without soldering. The capacitors used in the network were also specially made with high-quality parts, such as large MP capacitors. The DK-10000 was an optional loudspeaker stand.
