Help On Dunlavy's

Dunlavy doesn't use the most esoteric parts, beieving that more expensive parts don't provide any more benefit than less expensive ones and that in some cases are worse. Many parts manufacturers allow themselves a rather generous tolerance level. Dunlavy tests and matches theses parts then fine tunes each set of speakers to a be +/- 1.5 db to a specific model of parameters. Much of the expenses of Dunlavy products is the result of this individual fine tuning of each pair of speakers to meet these strict parameters. I don't belive most people have an anechonic chamber and the necessary equipment or expertice to replace parts and meet this level of precision tuning. Bottom line, while you may be able to find parts that claim to be superior, you may not be able to verify the claims and further more even if you could you might not be able to implement them as well as the factory did with lesser parts. You might want to heed the old adage "If ain't broke don't fix it".

I hope that many of you understand that I do believe that one can improve a product with better parts. I understand that manufacturers are building to a price point and trying to maximize profits where ever possible. My concern is the challange of implementation. Especially when dealing with a loudspeaker that was designed and fine tuned with a propriety computer program in an anchoenic chamber.
