Headphone baffle paper... Can you buy it anywhere?

You all know what I'm referring to. That white fibrous paper stuff that is commonly used on headphone baffles. Is there anywhere one could buy that stuff? I'm thinking of having metal baffles milled, and putting that paper on top to make it a true upgrade.

 

Maybe I don't quite get this, but you're trying to replace the paper with solid metal and then put paper on top of it? I really doubt that that would sound good.

No, imagine a Beyerdynamic baffle. A ring with thin arms suspending the driver in the middle, with filter paper covering the surface to make membranes where the holes are.

Basically I want to make a metal version of the plastic bit, and put that paper on top of the metal baffle.

 

Oh, that makes sense. Essentially replacing the plastic with metal. Now the question would be how much "better" (if at all) the metal would be. Likely stiffer so material resonances will likely have a higher Q. Maybe there are better materials than metal and maybe a certain kind of plastic used by Sennheiser is one of them.

I guess your best bet would be to carefully remove the paper trying not to damage it and reuse it, but maybe you can find a similar material. I have no idea.

 

I read that just earlier today actually. Very interesting stuff! I'

The best choice would be cafbon fiber, but that's harder to do
