Does It Make Sense to Purchase Dunlavy Speakers

Audio-Video Logic has purchased the complete stock of Dunlavy speakers and is selling them at very attractive prices. Dunlavy is no longer in business and I'm concerned about repairs if needed. Dunlavy drivers are individually matched, ane then pairs are matched for the two speakers, finally the crossovers are hand tweaked for final matching. Would appear on the surface that if a driver goes bad the "match" is gone forever. Comments??

I own a pair of SC-4a speakers. They were purchased to replace my B & W 810 II speakers. I have been an audiophile for 35 years+ and these are by far the best speakers I have ever owned. The base is incredible and both piano and guitar come alive in a way i hadn't heard before. Good luck on whatever you decide.

I just ordered a CC-2 center speaker to go with my SC-4as. It is unlikely that there would be many opportunities to find one used.

The CC-2 center channel speaker I ordered has arrived and it is wonderful. The workmanship appears top notch and it beautifully mates with my SC-4as. As usual this Dunlavy speaker would have been reasonably priced at full list. It's a crime that this company managed its engineering activities so well and had no concept about effective marketing.

It's been about one month since this discussion ended and there have been very few Dunlavy speakers for sale. I guess most of us were quite happy with what we purchased.
