Dahlquist DQ 10, is it worth new woofer?


Hello,

I have an opportunity to get my hands on a pair of DQ 10's for next to nothing (free). The only problem is the woofer on one of the speakers is blown and needs to be replaced. I noticed another message on this site where one of the people stated not to replace the woofer. Does that mean with another type of woofer or are you referring to the speaker can not be repaired?

How much $ would it take to repair the speaker?

I am not very familiar with the Dahlquists, what type of sound can I expect out of this speaker. I am currently using a Marantz SR 6300, will this be enough amp to push these speakers?

Thanks,
glennw

I had a pair of these in the late 70's, they have good output down to around 40hz or so. They need a good amount of power to come alive as they are very power hungry speakers. I loved the sound of mine.
