Dunlavy SC IV Speaker- Any Good???

I spent 3 years trying to find an 'upgrade' for my Dunlavy SC-IIIs. Not an easy task. I still regret selling them even though I finally landed some speakers that advance a little on what the SC-III's do.

John Dunlavy designed the Duntech line. For their time, they were excellent. I removed some ( not all ) of the fabric he had on the front panels. IMO, this opened them up, dramatically, for my ears.

So Duntech and Dunlavy are related/same?

My Aussie friend raves about them endlessly.

Great speakers to be sure, although I seem to remember reading a review that said the lVa was a significant improvement, I think maybe in bass?  Could be wrong.  As someone who owns speakers from a defunct company, I don’t recommend it — it’s like constantly walking on eggshells fearing a blown driver, etc. 

I lived in Colorado Springs and have hear the SC-IVs and the other smaller and larger models at The Sound Shop, his dealer back then. I also got to meet John at his small manufacturing/lab in Colorado Springs back in the 1990s, an interesting guy.

I always thought the speakers were fabulous but there was an extremely small, inches, sweet spot and if you were in it they were magical, no kidding.

Heard them many years ago when they first came out and I was impressed.

I think they sound great. A friend owned them and I have heard them many times.

However, I thought you were buying Wilson Benesch Curve speakers.

"Heard something really quite extraordinary. Now I gotta have it!!!"

How did the Fritz speakers you bought work out?

Excellent speakers, a classic design.  Amazing imaging, maybe not as transparent as the best in that area, but well-balanced tonally and excellent dynamics.  You need a large room for them to sound their best and should sit at least 10 feet from them for the drivers to integrate.  They like power, and sound really good with tubes (I have heard them with ARC, VAC and VTL), though fine with solid state as well.  If I had a room large enough for them, I would strongly consider them, even though they're no longer in production.

not sure if you’re serious or just being funny

this is an accurate write up, based on what i recall of the sc4’s, which a dear friend of mine had, driven by big bad arc monoblocks way back then, wonderful transparency and powerful sound, helluva system

Okay then I'll buy them. Thanks.
