Dahlquist DQ-8 was: Newbie needs advice...

Hi all. I went to a shop in town last night and checked out a pair of the DQ-8 by Dahlquist. I was pretty impressed by their sound - powered by a Brio (similar to my Luna) - it was full and warm, yet dynamic, detailed and engaging.

I wonder what experience any of you have with this speaker. Please don't tell me that the DQ-10 is the better because I can't afford those. :)

Cheers-

The guy behind many Dahquist designs went on to form Alon, and now Nola. I'm sure I cant spell his name, even if I could remember it correctly! I believe "open baffle" describes the 20s, not sure if the are considered bi, or dipole? The 8 is a two way, with the woofer in a box and only the tweeter on the upper baffle.
Very creative designs for their day, Dahquist, Alon and now Nola all highly regarded.
