I just got some Aluminum diaphragms from Part Express made by Radian for my JBL 2441's with Dr. Bruce Edgar Salad Bowls.
They came with overlaid curves on top of original JBL diaphragms and they are IDENTICAL.
After installing them, they curved better than the original JBL diaphragms they replaced.
So based on that, if they make Altec replacements also, those should be even better than the originals at a lower price.
PS: I have yet to hear them because I'm in the process of building cabinets to go on top of the Bass Horns and add a missing tweeter.
But I'm confident the Radians will sound just fine based on the very smooth curves they yielded on my magnitude response test, both channels match exactly too!
