Duntech Explained

Duntech is an Australia-based professional audio loudspeaker manufacturer, researcher, and developer.[1] Their speakers are considered to be extremely high-end, audiophile-grade speakers, but they come with a very high price tag, as well.

About

The company was started in Australia between 1981 and 1990 by the physicist John Dunlavy.[2] [3] [4] In the 1990s Dunlavy left Australia for Colorado, where he founded Dunlavy Audio Labs.[2]

The New York Times said the Duntech speaker "is distinguished by an extraordinary degree of what might be called sheer musicality."

In 1987 the Duntech Sovereign 2001 cost around $15,000.[5] Additionally, they need a very large room to perform optimally.[6] [7] However, other models range in price from $2000 to $30,000.[8] Duntech Statesman was one of 3 models at the lower end and more affordable.[9]

Duntech's Sovereign model line speakers are known for accurate sound reproduction.[10] [11] [12] The Sovereign C-7000 is a seven driver speaker system with two 12-inch woofers, two seven-inch midrange drivers, two two-inch tweeters, and one 3/4-inch supertweeter.[13]
