Duntech is an Australia-based professional audio loudspeaker manufacturer, researcher, and developer. [2] Their speakers are considered to be extremely high-end, audiophile-grade speakers, but they come with a very high price tag, as well. [3]
The company was started in Australia between 1981 and 1990 by the physicist John Dunlavy. [4] [5] [3] In the 1990s Dunlavy left Australia for Colorado, where he founded Dunlavy Audio Labs. [4]
The New York Times said the Duntech speaker "is distinguished by an extraordinary degree of what might be called sheer musicality." [3]
In 1987 the Duntech Sovereign 2001 cost around $15,000. [3] [6] Additionally, they need a very large room to perform optimally. [7] [8] However, other models range in price from $2000 to $30,000. [9] Duntech Statesman was one of 3 models at the lower end and more affordable. [10]
Duntech's Sovereign model line speakers are known for accurate sound reproduction. [11] [12] [13] 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. [14]
