I'm looking to add subwoofers and an active crossover to my new-to-me Dahlquist DQ-10 speakers.
Can someone tell me what a good price would be for the Dahlquist DQ-LP1 Active Crossover?
I have the schematic for it, so although it would be great to find one in prime condition, a fixer upper isn't out of the question.
Also, what would a fair price be for the matching subwoofer, the DQ-1W?
They seem to be auctioning all over the map, so what is a realistic price for these?
Thanks!

I've seen them as high as $450, I wouldn't pay that much. I don't know what they really are worth, so I'm asking...

I don't have a clue. I paid 550.00 for my Pioneer SF-850, and 680.00 for my Pioneer D-23.

Thanks, guys. I've been bitten by the Dahlquist bug badly, and I want to complete my DQ-10's with the matching subs and crossover. Is there a better way to go? (reaching for the can opener) :)
I mean, I'm sure there are a thousand ways to go with subs and active crossovers, but I'm a pragmatic sort of guy and if I can get something and rebuild it I'll go that way. All of my audio gear except for my cd player is from the 70's, and most of it was either not working when I got it or it needed serious attention. That's what I love about Phoenix; you guys take the old and make it better than new. THAT'S where it's at.

Thanks, NavLinear...Looked so good that I went for it. It's already shipped and on it's way to me, sooooo, now it's time to find the matching subwoofer (s). The same guy says he has one, but I don't know what he wants for it yet.
Do any of you good people have experience with the Dahlquist DQ-1W sub?
