Alon/Nola drivers


Does Alon/Nola use custom drivers or are they off the shelf? I am intereested in the Viper Signature/Exotic Signature or the Circes.

Thanks.

All drivers are custom in the Alons. One thing to consider is replacement prices, I recently spoke with Carl and there have been steep price increases: Alnico tweeters $1600 pr., 10" Alnico woofers $1600 pr., Alnico mids are still $800 pr. There are no off the shelf replacements.
Thanks guys. I have been considering the purchase of a used speaker and with the recent uncertainties regarding the split between Nola and Alon, I wanted to check this out first.
The price of replacement speakers are very expensive from Nola. You can try Madisound and he probably can find excellent drivers that will work close to the custom ones.

Happy Listening.
ANYONE REPLACING WOOFERS IN THEIR CIRCES...I want your old ones for my Vs MkIIs ;-)

Rbischof, I bought my Alons used awhile back. I lose no sleep at night worrying about the need to replace drivers (although I would kinda like to upgrade my woofs). I hope you;re not planning on frying yours, whould gecome lucky enough to own a pair of Alons/Nolas. Wonderful, musical speakers. Don't worry, buy the Alons and be happy. Circes are fabulous.
FWIW. Alon/Nola does not support their speakers after sale on some spare parts (e.g. cabnitrey repairs & replacement cloth for mine). To each their own but I'm fed up with them and wouldn't give them another nickle under any circumstances.
Anyone who wants alinco tweeters, midrange or 8" woofers for 1/2 retail can buy mine if they choose.
