HELLO, I still own my dahlquist dq10's and dq20's also.for the price they are a gift and have to spend several thousand to beat I.M.H.O.I currently own von schweikert vr6's but had many others that i did not like as much as the dahlquists.dahlquist are like sponges ,especially the 10's and need high current.I feel they sound their best with a good all tube preamp say an older A.R.C.SP6 fits the bill nicely and at least 200/watts.ch SOLID STATE AMP.threshold comes to mind,just as long as it is high current.also placement is critical with them.ENYOY,RICH
Need a good amp for Dahlquist DQ-10
Looking for a good used amp to drive DQ-10 speakers. Have been told that a 200wpc is enough power. Have found a McIntosh MC 2250(250wpc) for 1200.00 and an Aragon 4004MK11(200wpc) for 900.00. Also have seen the same Aragon on Audiogon for less and wondering which way to go. Need a preamp for use of a tuner and cd with this. Any suggestions!Just starting out with the DQ 10 speakers and dont want to buy the wrong amp. Thank You! Larry
