Does It Make Sense to Purchase Dunlavy Speakers

Audio-Video Logic has purchased the complete stock of Dunlavy speakers and is selling them at very attractive prices. Dunlavy is no longer in business and I'm concerned about repairs if needed. Dunlavy drivers are individually matched, ane then pairs are matched for the two speakers, finally the crossovers are hand tweaked for final matching. Would appear on the surface that if a driver goes bad the "match" is gone forever. Comments??

I just wanted to tell people, I found someone in NYC whose highly recommended, who fixes and modifies all Dunlavy speakers. Here's his site. http://www.tubesville.com/
Here's a review about his mods on Audioreview.

At these prices you could afford great speakers for a second system... I had the SC-IV for 18 months and SC-V for 2 years and loved them both.

Just wanted to update my earlier post. I received my sciii.a's yesterday. All I can say is WOW. Build quality was fine. Sound was well, Dunlavy. I also spoke to AVL about them purchasing "slapped together" product. The answer was that they only bought pre-assembled A stock. I can say I am not dissapointed. I hope this helps.

The CC-2 center channel speaker I ordered has arrived and it is wonderful. The workmanship appears top notch and it beautifully mates with my SC-4as. As usual this Dunlavy speaker would have been reasonably priced at full list. It's a crime that this company managed its engineering activities so well and had no concept about effective marketing.
