How do Dunlavys compared to new stuff?

I attended a Stereophile show in the 90s and the Dunlavy SC-IV was my favorite. I'm considering new speakers (thanks for the help on previous threads) and wondering if in 15 years newer designs have left them behind. How would these compare to similar designs/cost speakers of today?

There are some IIIs for sale, how do they compare to the IV? How much would IVs cost do you think?

Thanks,
Jim

I would definitely look for IVAs rather the IVs. I have owned both and the IVA is superior IMO.

On a related note: I've often wondered what the Dunlavy IVA would have sounded like with top notch drivers and crossover components. Of course the prices would have been significantly higher but it could have been quite a speaker.
