Dahlquist DQ-10s for home theater and music?

I just bought a pioneer elite vsx-45tx... Now Im trying to think up speakers that wont break the bank. When I was a little kid my dad had/has 2 paid of dq-10s (now theyre sitting in storage needing upgrading and woofers fixed). I looooved the sound these speakers made. My worry is if these speakers will still be usable today mated with a subwoofer center channel and rear speakers for watching a lot of movies, and for listening to a wide variety of music (not country and not classical). Can anyone tell me, am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks
Jeff

The amount of work required for these DQ 10s seems a bit ridiculous, to this audiophool. 100 watts just ain't enough juice for those babies. More like 200, and then some. Try a post for info about speakers for your system and the amount of $$ you want to spend. That'll set you free. Not those DQ10s. peace, warren

I own a pair of DQ20I's and am going to be using them for home theater just for a short while to try them out. I will let you know the outcome in a few weeks.

I tried this out with Elite 47TX. They are good in stereo mode but awfull in HT application. It is very hard to match the center with them and you will have to turn the volume too loud to hear them properly in your environment. my 2 cents.
