Dahlquist speaker models, question/experience and today

The magic lived on.  I still have a pair of DQ 20s which have better drivers than the 10 and are still magical.  Regnar provides rebuilds for the woofers and midrange and last I checked scanspeak still has the tweeters in production 30 plus years later.  the 20i and 30s are also nice speakers as are the 9s and the 10s put them on the map but I believe the 20s were there finest hour.  All can be had for a song and can be repaired or upgraded via Regnar if you have minimal skills with a soldering iron.

...eddie, thanks for the info/suggestions.  

I have owned a very large number of speakers over the years...and stacked Advents, Dahlquist DQ-10 and Magnepan 20 are the ones I remember most. 
I would mention Karly, Jaleen and Susanne...but the speakers were cheaper and more reliable. 

The real sleeper of the Dahlquist line is the dq8 the 8 inch two way it is a lot of speakers for the money in a small to medium sized room and you can get them for not much money but be sure to bring a good high current solid state amp to the party.

The sleeper dahlquist is the dq8 it is an amazing speaker for the money for a small to medium sized room with a solid state amplifier tubes do not light it up so do not even try.

Speakermaster is right - the DQ8 was a real sleeper.  I liked the DQ12 a lot too.   Didn't have much use for the DQ20.
