Hi people I'm new to here and wanted to ask some advice.
I've just picked up some DM4's that I got cheap. I wanted these to replace my B&W P4's which have a cracked tweeter. I have had the P4's for ages powered by a nait 3, but have grown to dislike this set up. I found the sound to have great bass extension but mids a highs are horrible leading to a muddy presentation. I also have just got a A&R A60 which has improved the sound a little but is still not right.
So today I gave the DM4's a run and although the mids and highs sounded better there was a distinct lack of lower frequencies and the over all sound didn't have any of the richness of the P4's.
Does anyone have experience with both or either of these speakers. I know the white woofer models are prone to shrinkage but I'm wondering if they need to recapped or if there is a problem with the crossovers.
These a my first pair of vintage speakers so I'm also not sure if I was expecting to much from them, but after hearing the difference between the A60 and Nait 3 I was sure that a vintage rich sound would suit me.
Can anyone recommend anywhere to get them serviced if thats what they need or any budget alternatives (before looking at these was considering some ae109's or MA252's).
