Re: DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
Patrick, The other posters on this thread all have good advice. Joe at Regnar?refurbished a set of my DQ-10s a few year ago. He did stellar work and I couldn¡¯t be happier. I¡¯m sure he¡¯s run

Re: DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
Sounds more likely to be an issue with a solder joint. Related to the area of the board flexing. Or the input jacks, fuse holder, etc. Even the related new cap could be bad. Over the years those upper

Re: DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
The tinsels for the midrange dome are mounted on the driver's front plate and accessible without disassembling the driver. You can see them from the front of the speaker, actually, without any undoing

Re: DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
It may also be a good reminder that a marginal solder joint on a PC board may work fine for years, but on a speaker wire, not so much. The mechanical vibrations from the speaker can easily travel down

Re: DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
Greetings Patrick, This wire that you are pulling on producing these results. Are you also stressing the other end? And where does the other end terminate? The mid itself cannot cause the rest of the

DQ-10 Midrange Speaker Crackle - Part II
I posted recently about a DQ-10 mid range speaker crackle and receive a couple of helpful responses -- thank you!? I think part of my problem was bad solder connections on the main mid range speaker

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
As w e mentioned, the badges not being attached were a thing for the early to mid-production DQ-10s. Per the company literature in the files section:

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
For all who are reporting no serial number, see the photo from "dq" today. The earlier units had a small sticker on a tweeter baffle with the serial number on it, which often falls off with age. Newer

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
I also have a mirror-image pair that I purchased direct from the factory. The speakers themselves do not bear plates with serial numbers, but the owner's manuals came in manila envelopes on which what

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
The serial numbers on mine are on a small sticker on the tweeter baffle (not the super tweeter). See pic. My pair 4884/4885 are from around 1976 (or earlier, I bought them used) and were not mirror
Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
When I got my pair (1975) the badges were supplied but not affixed. It was up to the owner to apply them (I suppose because some owners didn't want the badges).

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
Mine are without serial numbers and also don't have badges on the front--doesn't seem that there had been badges that had fallen off. Not mirror imaged.

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
I have a mirror imaged pair but the serial number is not visible.? Where would it be placed?

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
I can add that my original pair (which I bought while in high school) were not mirror imaged because i remember the instructions they mailed out to do it yourself. This was in winter of 1975. They had

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
This is what I recall about the early DQ-10's... The first that I knew about were not mirrored and did not have the Mylar capacitors (the bright yellow ones).? The first I ever saw had the Advent

Re: DQ-10's with no serial numbers
I was thinking in an earlier mail of what is now in groups.io /g/DahlquistSpeakers/wiki Look in the DQ-10 section, perhaps match the rev info to what selected components your DQ-10s
