Dunlavy SC IIs


I'm considering an upgrade from Meadowlark Kestrel Hot Rods, and the Dunlavys were suggested to me as an alternative with the greater resolving power that I seek. Currently using Linn monoblocks biwired to the Kestrels with Tara Master Gen2. What is the experience out there with the SC IIs specifically? My budget is about 2.5K. Thanks, John

John, you can stay within your budget and purchase Dunlavy SC-III's used. Three way, five driver. I also use a subwoofer with them (although not required) and the results are outstanding. Far superior to anything I have heard in the $10K - 15K range.
From various reviews, I'd agree with the advice to try to go for the III's used if at all possible. There's a review of the II's in a recent The Absolute Sound.
I started with the Dunlavy III's. The advice above is right on, if you like the Dunlavy sound and the II's impressed you you'll be in heaven with the III's. P.S. welcome to Dunlavy!
