all known models are still listed, but without datasheets as usual on websites from other companies like this one
All Products | Precision Devices Loudspeakers
Only on facebook are several sheets, but not the ones from their currently website.
Maybe one of the members have several datasheets from several years ago (according their website no new types are published in the last years).
Thank you very much.
Unfortunately this closed thread don't provide the wanted information.
How Reliable Are McCauley Drivers?
P.S.: There are a lot of guys, which have the name "Tom McCauley". But I think the founder of this loudspeaker company is this one:
Derol Caraco & Tom McCauley - Recording - Skipper Wise

this is one of the rare mentions of McCauley drivers from years gone bye that i've run into and depending how far back in time you go just who was making their drivers goes from Cetec Gauss (good luck finding that info as it was pre internet days and little data if any exists other than archival material someone may have in a paper format) to ATC (as an OEM) to RCF then to Eminence depending on calendar date.
and no that second link picture to my recollection is not the founder of McCauley Sound Inc. just some coattail drager with a home studio.

What happens to McCauley Sound ?
while looking for some information under

I read this for over a year:
Believe it or not, 2024 is the year, that we finally replaced the front-end webserver!
The time has really come, and I’m excited to start being able to add new content here, while still maintaining all of the previous links to older products on the back-end.
It is still going to take a little bit of time to get current products into a template which is easy to display online, but getting this far is a big step in the right direction.
There are so many new and exciting things we’ve been working on, I can’t wait to get started. I hope everyone has a happy new year, with only great things to come in 2024.
P.S.: only this datasheets for low frequency transducers are still on the web for download:

this is from the early inception days of McCauley Sound as a west coast production/sound company.
here's a later development.
this was around the same time they ventured into manufacturing of live sound products starting with loudspeakers.
That is a picture of Al Siniscal's A1 Audio VIP (Vertical Integrated Power) system, which dated back to 1974, all the horns and high frequency drivers are standard issue JBL.
A1's VIP re-built RCA MI-9462 "Ubangi" bass bins with built in BGW750B amplifiers were also JBL loaded.
Every A1 Audio system built since then has also been JBL loaded.
McCauley had their own line of high frequency horns.
DB sound out of Chicago used their 1" throat radial, which looked like a minature JBL 2345 with an Altec-like flat mounting flange and 2" throat 482 (similar to a JBL 2390) horns in their late 1970s systems.
Having also owned (and copied..) the 482 horns, I've been interested in McCauley's original spec sheets, but have found none.
McCauley's replaceable basket/cone/coil assembly in their early drivers was an interesting feature later adopted by Peavey.
