Alternatives to Dunlavy SC-IVA???

I was going to buy the Dunlavy SC-IVA as well. But when I heard the Vienna Acoustic Mahler I was very impressed and bought them. Smooth across the entire frequency range, great bass and a big 3-D soundstage with a very musical slightly warm sound. They are very nice to look at and fit into a home setting better than the big Dunlavys.

Piega 10's,c-10ltds. I owned the iv's,iva's and the v's. In my room the piega's were a major upgrade in clarity,midrange,treble,and tighter bass. Need I say more

seems to me now is the time to buy a pair of IVa's. Since the shop went south some of the Dunlavy the prices i've seen on this site have gone to silly cheap levels. Bad business practices don't change the quality of a speaker but some folks seem to think so and want to unlaod them.

I agree with Piezo regarding the purchase of SC-IVa speakers. I have been am are still very happy with mine and as I can understand one's fear of buying speakers from a defunct company, there are many who prefer the musicality of these speakers over all similarly priced competition. Similarly priced would be defined based on normal retail pricing. At throw away pricing it should be any easy decision.

The Vmps line would be a great alternative.
