  1. Contact Ohm. They are still in business and provide drivers for their vintage speaker systems. Legacy Products | Ohm Speakers | Custom Audiophile Speakers for Music & Home Theater
  2. Forgot, here are the front grills: https://www.etsy.com/shop/AllisonSpeakerParts?ref=l2-about-shopname
  3. Here you go for the grills: https://www.etsy.com/listing/106891119/allison-speaker-8-woofer-grill-for?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=allison&ref=sr_gallery-1-8&organic_search_click=1&col=1 As to the woofers, are they in that bad a shape or is it just the surrounds? Where are you located. There's someone in NJ who replaces surrounds as well as PA. If you're handy, you can replace them yourself.
  4. From the Allison Yahoo group: We have a tech outside Boston who has successfully restored tweeters whose only fault was their wiring. The cost if he is successful is $35 ea + return s/h. To get them to him, pack them v v v v carefully (cardboard cutout collars, lots bubblewrap etc) and pack and ship to Mark Chambers 141 River Rd Pepperell MA 01463-1625
  5. Bill, Going to have to disagree with you. There was a discussion in the Allison Group that Allison did in fact make speakers for auto sound. Check the link and look at the first picture. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Original-Allison-Acoustics-2-WAY-CONVEX-DIAPHRAGM-TWEETER-ACD-2-NOS/173020890011 Brian
  6. There's a pair of F-1s on eBay as I write this that look in good shape. Seller is asking $299 I believe. (I am not the seller nor have any relationship to the seller)
  7. There is a speaker identified as a Rectilinear s38 on NY CL. At least that is what is on the card stapled to the back of the speakers. It looks authentic. Anybody know or have an opinion about these speakers?
  8. Try the Allison group on Yahoo. They do post schematics. Not sure if they have RDL.
  9. There are one each on eBay now.
  10. The AL 115s are older. Bellingham, MA was one of the locations of the company when Roy Allison owned the company which was before 1994. He sold it in the early 90s. By 1998 the company was in Kentucky. They sold factory direct which is why you were able to order a "hybrid." Are there any marks on the backs of the tweeters that might indicate the system for which the tweeter was intended? Maybe the tweeter in the AL 115 was not the original but replacement from another Allison speaker system I belong to the Yahoo Allison Group and they have indicated that it is not a good idea to put a tweeter from a three-way system into a two-way system due to differences in frequency range and the cooling material used. Maybe a former owner of the AL 115s swapped out the tweeter.
  11. AL 120s do not have a midrange speaker they have a tweeter and two woofers inversely mounted. It considered a 2.5 way speaker as the crossover points allow one woofer to act as a mid/woofer. Thee is a brochure explaining this on this website. So you may want a 6 inch woofer not an allison midrange speaker. good luck, Brian
