Auditioned them at New York Audio Show 1974 based on strong recommendation from the AR (Acoustic Research) docent at the listening room that AR used to maintain at NewYork's Grand Central Station. At the 1974 show the Nakamichi (tape deck) room was using the Dahlquost DQ-10s to show off the new Nakamichi cassette decks. The crowd was in awe at the stunning musicality...myself included. Had wished I could afford a pair ($700 a pair at the time). Nowadays I drop that much on accessories.
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?
