My reference pair is some SC-IVs since the late 80s Those stay put and have probably owned 30 plus other Hifi speakers ever since. The only speakers Modern speakers I’ve heard that wowed me are evolution acoustics which excell in the same areas that the Dunlavy s do. When I first heard them my brain said Dunlavy has been reincarnated.
Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go...
I had a pair of Dunlavy SC-1 speakers several years ago, and I miss them. They were so accurate, detailed (but never bright), and totally Disappeared into a room with hardwood floors and wood paneling that was only 10x10. I loved those speakers and miss them.
Short of finding a pair used were should I turn? My room is a little better, but not much. I listen fairly close. I have found Dynaudio just a bit dry for me. They have had most of what the Dunlavys offered, but just a little lean. I found Totem's Arro, Mite, and DC to be great, but not quit as accurate. They sing like the dickens and almost disappear, but they lacked a bit of the precision.
I have some Ohm that are still breaking in, but I'm having trouble getting used to their presentation. They sound a little laid back to me, and while I love the boxless sound they produce, it comes at the price of accuracy.
Anyway, these are just my MHO of these speakers and I know every person, room and system is different. I'm not trying to bash any of the above speakers. They all are really nice. I'm just to express where I stand, and trying to get a little guidance from some Dunlavy lovers out there.
Aside from any suggestions I may be moving onto Gallo 3.1s next.
Cheers,
