Best bet is check at Parts express, you can get someone in an online conversation. They probably have something. Sparkomatic is horrible on parts and support.
The REAL Altec sold it's name BEFORE they went bankrupt. So there were a couple of years where there were TWO companies making Altec speakers...One professional..and one Home/Car. Not that it really matters since the REAL Altec went bankrupt shortly after.
As for replacement mid...GOOD LUCK. Sparkomatic is notorious for extremely poor service. I doubt you can find a replacement part.
If you want a much better sounding speaker at about the same size...Look on E-Bay for a used pair of Altec Model-6 or Model-8. And even though the REAL Altec is out of business you can still get replacement parts through Great Plains.
