I just acquired a pair of AR91s, When I got them home, I found the woofers to be shot. In dire need of re-foam, or replacement. And the dome on one of the midrange has been pushed in. Other than that they appear to be in pretty fair shape.
Any ideas on where to find replacement drivers?

I'm pretty sure you can't get replacement drivers. What you need is a refoam kit. Finding foams that fit correctly and have the right compliance is the hard bit.
After I started this thread, I found drivers. But they're cost prohibitive. So I have re-foam kit on the way. I'll give it a go, and if I screw it up, I'll have to bite the bullet and get new drivers.
You might succeed in pulling the mid dome back out with sticky tape or a dental pick. On the refoam, the shim method is more reliable but it does open the voice coil gap to debris so you have to be fastidious. A good find.
Did the re-foam today. All went well, and they sound fine. (with what I had on hand to drive them) 😀
