Thanks for replying.

Alon made some very nice speakers in my opinion. The brand lives on under the name "Nola", which is "Alon" spelled backwards.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but are you sure your husband wants new speakers?

The Alons he has - do they look like the speaker at the link below? If not, how are they different?

What do you or your husband want the new speakers to do better than the Alons?

Will the new speakers be used for home theater as well as music? If so, then we should take into account the center channel speaker; we don't want a sonic mis-match between the center channel and the left and right main speakers.

I'm not in regular contact with any New York area dealers, but I'll do some poking around.

Can I e-mail you at the address you used when you posted here?

Best wishes,

Duke
