The best amp or improvement for Dahlquist DQ-10's


I have been looking at and listening to many speakers but every time I come home to my DQ-10's I still enjoy them most. Their flaw, and the reason I'm looking, is the bass driver and/or the bass enclosure. The sound is not "tight" or "punchy" enough. I've read that this can be alleviated with certain amps. (Although I am skeptical). I've even contemplated changing the bass driver and bass enclosure.

MY QUESTIONS: Is there a speaker out that has the same mid's and high's but with "tight" bass? Is there an amp that really could tighten this "loose" bass? (No suggestions over 2k used market).

SETUP: I have a Rega Planet cd player and Rega 25 turntable feeding an Audible Illlusions 3A pre-amp with Amperex gold pin 6922's going into a Rotel 980BX 100 watt per channel amp.

I am new here, in fact by screen does not work let. That is new. In time I will figuer this site out but at this point I am loss. But anyone that can help me with this question please take the time to E-mail me at cudaken3834@aol.com

I have a pair of DQ 10's and love the sound, but the amp will not handle them. I have a ADCOM GFA1A, and drive it in to shut down fast. Will the ADCOM 555 or 555II handle the DQ 10's?

I am not the purest I use to be. In fact the system has not be fired up for 8 year's. But the bug has bite again. Donot want to make a second mistake in power supply.

On a tight budget, as screen name will tell you I am in to cars as well. Knee deep in a blowen 69 Charger so used is all I can afford, $400.00 max. So no crown aps's for me.

Will someone please take the time to answer me by E-mail? Make subject DQ 10'S in uppper caseing. E-mail again.
