CD-6s etc


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am looking for the schematics for the Allison CD 6 speakers.

Currently, I own a pair of CD-8's and I've just purchased a surround

sound receiver. I'd like to match my back speakers with the fronts. I have the capability to build a pair of CD-6s in my wood shop and I can purchase the drivers from Allison (the new company)... Soooooo -

Any info on the CD 6 would be great -

IMHO it's the right size for a rear speaker, the great Allison wide dispersion tweeter and of course it's reasonable size plus it can be mounted on a wall upside down etc...

What I am looking for:

Cabinet pictures (Has anyone ever opened up a pair and taken pics?)

Crossover design - I wonder how similar it is to the Allison 1/2

design???

Thanks for any assistance

By far the most knowledgeable person I know on the subject of Allison speakers is one Howard Ferstler. He posts on this site occasionally, and you should direct a question to him. He has a wealth of knowledge and information on all Allisons.

There is a pair of CD-6s for sale on ebay. I believe there's a couple of days to go. The price is currently over $100. They appear to be in excellent shape from the pictures that are posted.

As far as schematics, I believe you can download the brochure for the CD series from this site. It may give you some dimensions and the crossover. I'm not sure. It has been awhile since I've looked.

Hi, thanks I've been watching the 6s on ebay. I have the brocure and it has the internal volume but not much more. I've got a pair of 6's on the way from another source so I'll be able to do what I need.

Thanks,

Mark
