Thanks to you both for your replies, good food for thought. Will have to check whether my pre has a "phantom" mode! Regards, Ben
know any speakers match w/ dunlavy for ht?
Hi! I have a pair of Dunlavy IIs that I kind of fell into, and am now using as the front l/r speakers in my ht system. Love the sound, but looking for suggestions as to what to match them with. For the center channel, if I had the dough, I'd use a Dunlavy I, but can't afford a pair and don't expect anyone to be selling a single speaker anytime soon. Right now I'm using a Platinum Audio PT 806 speaker I had lieing around, seems to work well enough, but wonder if there's anything that might be a better tonal match. For the rears, if I had the dough and the room, I'd use a pair of Dunlavy 1s, but alas, I'm on a budget, and space is at a premium. Right now I'm using Sound Dynamics RTS3, which sound pretty good to me, and for the money probably about as accurate as I can expect. However, I'd like something smaller, if it was as good or better match with the Dunlavys, yet affordable. Finally, I am using a small M&K sub, which I like a lot and seems to blend well with my mains. I bought a pair of small Definitive Technology surrounds for my office system (sound unheard) and was surprised how good they sound. Got me to thinking Definitive Technology might be a way to go for my center and surrounds, but they are quite expensive and I'm hesitant to take the plunge without knowing whether they are overpriced or whether they're a good match with the Dunlavys. I appeal to you, oh great and wise audiogoners, for whatever thoughts you might have! Regards, Ben
