wooden chunk inside the driver? that's a scary thought. my old pair had some pieces fall off on occasion on the inner part where the wood was cut (frayed pieces i suppose) but it was always on the surface never got inside.
i wonder what caused the drivers to have that red tint, it looks almost like reddish packing tape. you should try to get a recent pair side by side for a more accurate comparison. a friend of mine recently tried to do one but the vintage pair arrived with one of the channels not functioning.
last i heard a true vintage pair, there was also a new rs1 and i don't remember hearing any differences but it was at a noisy meet and i wasn't exactly looking out for any changes...
