Dunlavy SC VI's...


I've owned these speakers for almost 2 years now. To say I'm happy with them, would be a major understatement.
I guess going from solid state to tubes, along with the changing out of the Klipschorns for the SC VI's, was alot to process. I still love my K-horns, and won't part with them. They have a unique sound.
The Dunlavys just seem to do "everything".
I'd love to hear the opinions of other Dunlavy owners. Has anyone made any modifications?
If anyone has the original manual for the SC-VI's, I sure would appreciate a copy.
Thanks for looking... Enjoy!!!

What a mean thing to say. I spoke to John many times, and admittedly he cut cost on the crossover and internal wiring. He helped talk me through what I might do...
Jimateo,

How are you? Long time since we last spoke.

I have a new room (take a look at the pictures of my system, even though not updated...).

I found that placing absorption/difusion pannels in the sideways hep a lot, so I had a couple of them custom made. Depending on their positioning I can increase or reduce their effect.

The front wall absorption and diffusion is also very important, since I could have the back of my SC-VI only three feet from the wall.

I will now order a 6feetx4feet rpg like diffusion panel for the ceiling first reflection and perhaps another 6feet(tall)x2feet(w) movable diffusion panel to put in front of the TV.

I can tell you that upgrading to the Playback Designs MPD-5 and to the Krell FPB 750mcx made a BIG improvement in the sound of the Dunlavy SC-VI. It is VERY realistic, so I look forward to my preamp upgrade.

Did you actually do any SC-VI crossover mod? Or know of anyone who did a SC-VI crossover mod?

Cheers,

Vicente
Hello Jimateo,

I have now done many mods to my SC-VIs, they are so much better now!

The best mods in terms of high impact and low cost were to change the tweeters and to change the crossover resitors to Duelund CAST, please check the detail in my system tread.

Cheers,
