Dahlquist evolution & Matching

I am interested in the history (dates etc) of the Dahlquist line from DQ-10 through DQ-30i. I ahve both D-20's and DQ-30i's and want to understand the history both technical and business.

Also, I am trying to use DQ-30i in a home entertainment system. So far the best match/compliment I have found for the center and surrounds are Monitor audio (Gold Center).I bought and returned a Regnar (sounded muddled to me). Any other suggestions?

A final point: I have listened and listened to other speakers and still find the Dahlquist to be superior up to my price limit (about $6 K for a new pair). I am sure many will think I am nuts or hard of hearing (which I am sligtly).

HI

I own a pair of DQ-10 's and am the origional owner ...

I use them in my basement system now -- and accually do about 70% of my listening there ,, I am now driving them with a pair of Carver Silver 9 mono blocks and a Granite Audio #657 tube cd player ... its awesome !!!still great sounding speakers !!!!

anyway -- I am using Phoenix Gold/Carver Pro ZpM-4 speaker Cable and it is the best match for the Dahlquist speakers ....

check out the speaker cable on our showroom on audiogon ...

and for info -- parts , service and anything about Dahlquist -- go to http://www.regnar.com/

good listening
