Keep checking there, maybe you will get lucky.Many years ago Allison Acoustics called me! to find out if I wanted to buy some A1 grills on a closeout sale. What a dope I was for missing that one. Not that my grills aren't in nice shape (a few minor cracks where they don't show.) How nice to have back ups though. I just got a grill for an Al 115 from the company (15 bucks)that I use as one of my surround speakers.Regards,Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest floweringlotus Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 Wow, awesome buy, Bill. Yeah, I imagine you've kicked yourself on that one a few times. Thanks for the heads up. I'll check. I did look once a few days ago. What exactly did you look under? Was it as simple as 'speakers' or something more specific?I did write to Allison about it back when they wrote to me asking if I wanted to be or knew anyone who wanted to be a distributor for their new lines. They said that they weren't going to carry any replacement parts for the old models. Then I found a company online and wrote to them, but have not heard anything back yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.Regards,Leslie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last month's Ebay listing was for a pair of A2 grills for 1 speaker system (2 grills).Look under "Computers and Electronics" Keyword ALLISON. A speaker only search is sometimes too narrow for Allison parts, grilles,etc.>>I did write to Allison about it back when they wrote to me>asking if I wanted to be or knew anyone who wanted to be a>distributor for their new lines.

Keeping my fingers crossed.The current website is http://www.allisonacoustics.com They have replacement drivers for most of the older speakers, but no crossovers, or grills for the very old systems like the Original Ones and Twos.

They were hard to find on the auction site - I must have tried three avenues before finally finding it, but persistence paid off. Keep your fingers crossed for me winning them. :7I also just purchased a vintage pair of Allison Six's, btw, with Rich's help. One of the grills came cracked in two places, but they sound fine. THANX AGAIN!!Best to you,Leslie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
