Summary:
I have a pair of DCM TF-400 II's that I liked so I picked up a pair of DCM FT12's for $50 on CL, the cabinets are a bit thin but the sound is good for a larger speaker. I tweeked the Midrange on my Sony DA30ES receiver and it really smoothed them out, good bass, and clear highs, the sound quality is up there with Cerwin Vega's larger speakers but I think the DCM's are smoother sounding, I just wish they would have built them with thicker MDF like the Vegas........There are other sites that say these were junk but I think that's a bit harsh since these were not $1000 speakers to begin with, if you like loud music with lots of bass then these are worth looking into, even at lower levels they still sound good.

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
I have a pair of DCM TF-400 II's that I liked so I picked up a pair of FT12's for 50 bucks that look like new....the cabinets are kinda thin but the sound is decent, I'm pushing them with a DA30ES receiver and they are smooth sounding and can push the bass out without any effort.........I did however tweek the midrange on the receiver to very little (since I'm not a fan of mids anyway) and it helped smooth it all out. Many people on other sites say these were junk but I think saying they are junk is a bit harsh since these were not $1500 speakers when they were new.......the sound quality is up there with Cerwin Vega the only problem was DCM could have used thicker MDF and more internal bracing. So in conclusion if you can find a pair pick them up....

So many to choose from! Lets us boil it down. How to Choose a Floorstanding Speaker that fits you:

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
