Thanks for the feedback...the guy sent me the specs and a pic of the SC-IIa and it is indeed a monitor. The dimensions and driver array are identical to the SM-1s. I am just concerned about spending $1800 on a 7 year old speaker. I sold my SM-1s for the blue book value of $1000. Anyone heard anything that compares to the Dunlavys...clean, fast etc?
Dunlavy SM-IIa - Experiences?
Years ago I had a pair of Dunlavy SM-1 which I stupidly sold. Many monitors since and i still miss that sound. The SM-1s are nearly impossible to come by, but I've been in contact with a gentleman here with NOS Dunlavy SC-IIa. He is selling them for $900 each. Does anyone have any experience with these monitors? Are there any differences between the speakers John sold and these that were post John? I listen to alot of acoustic music and female vocals. Any suggestions for current models that compare soundwise to the Dunlavys? Thanks in advance for your comments.
