You can get them from Bose.

At $100 each it is just not practical to do so. The price quoted above is
purely marketing. The oem drivers are mass-production below-average quality
drivers.

The last time I bought one was about 20 years ago. They were $40 ea
from a distributor. $100 might not be too bad, but they are supposed
to find cheapr units from China nowdays.

The 1 inch flat aluminum wire voice coil with about 1 ohm Z and 10 oz. magnet,
is probably imposible to get elewhere. One could use some other units and
rewire the box and retune it using some other impedance rating driver. The
hole mounting pattern is also the 3 hole type. Would probably have to drill
holes, but how do you screw into plastic? The drivers are also rather stiff
suspension wise, designed for ported apps., compared to the air spring of the
series 1 and 2.
