Allison 3 information, please

I am using my 1976 vintage, re-furbished Allison 3's as a stop-gap while I decide on a replacement for my Kharma 3.2 FEs, just sold. I am driving them with Atma-Sphere MA 2.2's, and need to know their impedance and sensitivity, as a guage for how my amps will drive difficult loads. Can anyone help? Thanks.
P.S. They sound phenomenal!!!! Too bad they're extinct.

Unfortunately, e-mails are returned and the phone line is disabled. I am afraid they are, indeed, sadly, extinct. If you can reach them, I'd be very grateful to hear of it. I would buy a new Allison in a heartbeat.
By the way, I found the specs of my 1976 model, which differ from the one at that website (4 ohms). Thanks, anyway!

Ekobesky, I owe you! I found a dealer who had a new pair of Allison Ones and Fours. Bought the Fours. Still compare favorably to modern designs after 30 years - although these are the 2002 re-issues. And they sit plumb against the walls - what could be better for an office? Thanks!
