Alternatives to Dunlavy SC-IVA???

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.

I second Fredgarvin's suggestion of considering VMPS. Particularly their RM40 speaker (similar in size/shape to the SC-IV).

In one of my discussions with John Dunlavy he told me if he was buying a speaker and his were not avalible he would get the Thiel six series or higher as a match for the IVa. He felt they were the second most acurate speaker on the market. I have spent some time with the CS-7.2 and in some respects like them more than my IVa's.
