Dahlquist DQ-8 was: Newbie needs advice...


Hi all. I went to a shop in town last night and checked out a pair of the DQ-8 by Dahlquist. I was pretty impressed by their sound - powered by a Brio (similar to my Luna) - it was full and warm, yet dynamic, detailed and engaging.

I wonder what experience any of you have with this speaker. Please don't tell me that the DQ-10 is the better because I can't afford those. :)

Cheers-

For those interested parties, I ended up with a pair of Dahlquist DQ-8 towers and I must say that I am rather impressed with their performance. As Oktyabr said, they are a bit lacking in the bass compared the DQ-20, but the presence is sufficient and tonality is pleasant none the less.

I can't give these a totally fair review due to the fact that the listening environment is sub-par, but considering their size and rather polite, but poignant, character I would recommend these to someone looking to make a small step into hi-fi.

Unfortunately, I can't find an owners manual anywhere and Regnar (the Dahlquist successor) isn't responding... oh well, I'm content. For now.

Cheers!
