Dunlavy SC IV Speaker- Any Good???

I know it is a crazy thing to bring a 23 year old speakers halfway around the world, I am now a happy person. I do understand parts could be failing. Together with my friend who owns the same model ( the Corinthian I), we have spare drivers, no doubt they may not be as closely matched as the original install, this will ensure the speakers can operate for a long time.

I would not worry that things will be failing unless you are driving them super hard.

I am sure there are many better speakers around, just sharing my experience. 

There are not many speakers that were/are better. I don’t think is is crazy at all to have seeked them out and shipped them (1/2 way across the flat earth.) ;)

I don't know what kaplandeisgn is talking about, but he's not correct about drivers needing to be reconed. I own 4 pairs of Dunlavy speakers; 2 pairs of SC-Vs, a pair of SC-IVs and a pair of SC-IIIs. I also own a SC-II.CC center channel. Out of 51 total drivers, not a single one has any issues.

The IVs and Vs are incredible speakers, and very accurate. If you want the truth, not a colored version of it, then you can't beat them.

John moved to Australia because the government was giving incentives to start businesses there. 

Dunlavy Audio Labs was based in Colorado after John moved back to the U.S., and picked up where he left off with the Duntech designs. In one of his interviews he said that the DAL models were far superior to the Duntech models due to his much-improved measuring equipment and his large anechoic chambers. He considered the Duntechs primitive in comparison.

Reviving this old post! Any one running Pass Labs With DAL? Well I am and the synergy is magical to say the least...

@pwayland which model pass and Dal do you have? I own Duntech Princess and I’m considering purchasing a pass amp. 

@btrail I have SM-1's and SC-S2 sub. The SM-1's are driven by an X150.5. Sound is detailed, soft and warm with wonderful imaging, mostly in that sweet listening position.. I find the SM-1 with sub similar in sound to my previously owned SC-IVA's, however hadn't experienced those with Pass...
