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??

It's been about one month since this discussion ended and there have been very few Dunlavy speakers for sale. I guess most of us were quite happy with what we purchased.
Just for the record, I blew the tweeters in my sciva's and had to replace them with off the shelf tweeters. My dunlavys sound just as good as they ever did.
I have SC4A's and, like most cognoscenti say, there is nothing like time and phase aligned speakers. I bought them new from a reputable dealer in CA in late 2000, so they are a couple years old. They sound better now than they ever did. In the end, the other speakers at this level may do a thing better but it will mostly be at the expense of another. My speakers are done in maple and the light color makes them user friendly. Unfortunately for me, 2 kids at home are forcing me to move. I am willing to sell these at a price that would be attractive for you and I. I have the receipt, manual and condition in/out is 9/10.
