I haven’t heard the speaker since its heyday in the mid-’70s. I remember one favorite amp was the Ampzilla- it had oodles of power and didn’t sound as nasty as a lot of early solid state. The speaker seemed to benefit from a large solid state amp, but I never owned a the DQ-10. It was a pretty remarkable speaker in the day- have no idea how it would hold up today. Cool that you restored a pair, @mofimadness.

New user, first post. I don't consider myself an audiophile...haha. I have the opportunity to purchase a set of DQ 10's @ $375 for the pair. Been on the 'Google' researching but figured I'd just get some new info here. Is this a good deal? They have been re-foamed but no tweaking of the electronics. Seller says they have not been used much. Will my Yamaha RX V677 7.1 SS receiver have sufficient power for these if used in 2 channel mode? I find conflicting opinions about this. I remember these when they first came out in the 70's and the reviews were fantastic. Just wonder if they still compare to today's speakers. Thanks!
