I purchased a used pair of DQ10's. My friend was an electronic engineer and completely revamped the crossovers into two separate modules: one for the bass with huge chokes and one for the midrange and treble also with very large chokes and all with very high-quality capacitors and resistors. All the wiring was redone with teflon Straightwire and heavy gauge for the bass. All the defractions were completely done away with by using special felt to build-up layers from each driver. The man who originally owned the DQ10's now owns Avante Guards said maybe he should have kept them. I am driving them with monoblock B&W amps, with a Krell preamp, a Sony 9000 ES SACD player, two original subwoofers driver by a Hafler 500 and Straightwire/Crescendo Speaker wire, etc.
These upgrades and accessories have dropped the jaws of a number of discriminating audiophiles, and if I can improve them anymore--well, lets say I'd have to be able to afford the very best to give these babies up.
