Is there a modern equivalent of Allison speakers?


I have just acquired a later version of the Allison Fours (2002) - made by the "re-vamped" Allison Acoustics, which is now out of business. I found the speakers (new) at one of the Allison dealers who had it left in stock. I need small speakers against a wall for my office and these are visually and logistically perfect. They sound like my original Allisons (Ones and Threes) in that the dispersion is excellent, the musicality is excellent, sound-staging a little vague, but transparency and resolution not up to modern standards - which is not surprising, since I believe the drivers are probably of 1970's vintage. So how do I find the best of the Allison design (against wall placement) with modern drivers? Any suggestions of such an animal? Does it exist? (In monitor, stand-mounted form)
I know about the Guru, but aesthetically, I would prefer a less contemporary, modern design. Don't want much, do I?

My dad had Allison 2's during the 1980's. He still has them in his basement but not used.

I saw a photo of the new Polk Audio speaker and it reminded me of my dad's Allison.
