I've owned DQ10's since '76. Paired it with a Phase Linear 400 and never had a complaint. Searching thru stereo files online I read these speakers were designed matched with G.A.S. Ampzilla II in those days and it's supposed to have nice synergy. I picked up one used for about $550 recently and when I listened to this combo the bass presentation improved. Strongly recommend a 200+ watt amp. Happy hunting!
Dahlquist DQ10: what is best way to power?
I have had a pair of DQ10 (restored in every way) for decades and use an Apt Holman amp and pre-amp for power but these are getting cranky and take time to fire up if at all. What would be good match for the DQ10s? The Apts seem under-powered. Is it worth having them repaired?
