Parts quality....You think the MG12's use expensive parts?...I got a good laugh on that (-:
Up to a $1,000, sure...the DQ 10's are very nice if you feed them enough power, and place them on good stands. (I did own a pair).

DQ 12's?....I don't recall them?

There are many old speakers that can more than hold their own with todays offerings. Snell, Mirage, a/d/s, and of course many others had some really nice speaker systems.

a/d/s....1530's, 2030's, 1290's
Snell....Type A, b, and c's
Mirage....M1, M3, M5

Here is a pair of the 1290's on Audiogon:

"Hey sogood - let's hear it about the MG12's".

No Knock on the Maggies, they sound great when set up properly, and so do the DQ-10's. I was just pointing out, that like the DQ-10....expensive parts not in use.
