    My brother has asked me to sell a pair of DC2000s for him.
    After a repair to the terminals on one speaker I gave them a listen.
    No Harbeth, but there was 'something', if you get my drift.

    I took them to a friend, who's a sound engineer, and we ended up running them using a passive
    preamp. and a Quad 405.
    A bit 'shouty' at high levels, but a lower levels and listening at about 2 metres they sounded excellent.
    Very detailed, a great stereo image but little depth to them.
    We tried an Amcrom DC300, but preferred the Quad 405.

    After an extended listen with a variety of music, the low level, close up setting worked well.
    Interesting loudspeakers...

    I wonder what they're worth ?

    About £150 to £170.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
