Dunlavy SM-IIa - Experiences?


Years ago I had a pair of Dunlavy SM-1 which I stupidly sold. Many monitors since and i still miss that sound. The SM-1s are nearly impossible to come by, but I've been in contact with a gentleman here with NOS Dunlavy SC-IIa. He is selling them for $900 each. Does anyone have any experience with these monitors? Are there any differences between the speakers John sold and these that were post John? I listen to alot of acoustic music and female vocals. Any suggestions for current models that compare soundwise to the Dunlavys? Thanks in advance for your comments.

I'm pretty sure that the SC-IIa is NOT a monitor. They are pretty tall and deep.
This is really weird. The picture and info I found, (see links below) say the SC-II(a) is a floor stander?
