I drove my pair with an Ampzilla, loved the big meters. An early c-j preamp and Phillips 212 TT and Nak cassette completed the system. I bet an updated/refurbished pair with current passive components would sound very good.
Who remembers the Dahlquist DQ-10's?
My first pair of "high-end" speakers. Power hungry critters but what I would give for an updated pair. I powered these with a Peavey CS-400 and a Maccomack Deluxe Line drive passive preamp!! Those were the days! Young and dumb I suppose?
