Str8wire,
Yes, I’ve heard about the DCM Time Windows, but never had a chance to listen to them. When I chose my DQ10’s, the other candidate was the Bose 901’s, but after my first listen to the DQ10’s, listening to Tchaikovsky’s 1812 overture, driven by a 125 watt Bryston amp, at the Electronic Supermarket/Dino’s Sight and Sound, in Niagara Falls, I was sold! Neil Peart, the drummer from the band, Rush, was still living in the area and had also purchased a pair ... it was a long time ago, gee, 40 years ago, now ... life was good, then! lol
No, I’m not familiar with GR Research. I had Regnar rebuild mine about 15 years ago and while I’ve toyed with modifying them, I won’t bother until they’re in need of repair. It would be interesting for all of us, though, to know what they might find/recommend.

?Ditto John,
Owned mine since 1980 also. Had my choice of the DQ 10s or DCM Time Windows, remember those? They are a mirrored pair had the woofers reckoned some time ago but haven’t touched the crossovers yet.... ?
I too have gone to many stereo shows over the years, looking to replace the 10s. Everything that would be a candidate are really costly. The soundstage and like you, because I’ve listened to them so long it’s hard to compare. For 2 years I moved about and could only fit a bookshelf in the apartments so the 10s were stored. Now I’ve got them back up and enjoying every minute I play them.
?I‘be been toying with the idea of taking them to GR Research to get their analysis on what might be improved. Don’t know if you’ve seen his channel on YouTube but one service has has takes retail speakers and provides recommendations, upgrade crossover kits and Possibly upgraded driver suggestions. Otherwise, I might just take the info on this site and rebuild the crossovers myself.
