    I had a pir of DQ-10s for a while about 15 years ago. They sounded great but they required a ton of power to get them up to a loud listening level. I was running an old HK Citation with them that produced about 250 per side and it still wasn't enough. Different model I know just be careful.
    Good luck, Phil

    They sound ok, nothing to go crazy over.

    I have Dalhquist 10's and Polk 12RTa's. Woofers rot like crazy so not surprised on the re-core. I think my Polks have a wider stage. Dalhquist have pretty good top end but since they have been out of business a long time parts/repair might be costly.... Polks are the better deal IMO...
