Review 1 of 8

Price Paid:  $250.00 from dont remember

Summary:
DCM Time Frame 600

Actually one of the top sounding speakers in the $1000 range, better than some in the $2000 range as well. If you listen to these with vocals only such as take 6 or the nylons you can actually hear the breathing and spittle in the voices its that clear!!!

Jazz cymbals and higher harmonics in the 12-15kh region are just crystal clear and if you know the difference you can tell if the stick hitting the cymbal is wood or plastic tipped. These speakers are that clean and clear, desroys the bose 901 series which sound like crap in the mid and upper range compared to these, have challenged friends with AR, JBL, Infinity, Polk, Bose am5 and 901, NHT and many other brand names and nothing compares to the clarity and punch of these things. I recently added the powered sub woofer and was just knocked out of my chair at the added bass( which really isn't needed)

If you can find a pair of these in good shape they are worth the money!!

Strengths:
rock is good, clean and punchy
jazz is like its in your home
symphonic music sounds like you are sitting in the middle of the orchestra
vocal music is scary its so good


i like the set up and the size but some feel its too big

Weaknesses:
if there is a weakness its too much bass but that can be taken care of with the receiver bass knob or a basic EQ unit


These were made when the company was in Ann Arbor Mich before the sale of the company or the demise of it whichever happened.

I have heard more recent DCM speakers and found them to not have any where near the same qualiy of sound that these models have.

If you find the tf 600-700
or the best of the lot the time window BUY THEM!!!

Review 3 of 8

Price Paid:  $330.00 from december 2004

Summary:
Very nice speakers. They sound very spacey, and cristal clear. Low frequenties are very well controlled, and very deep too. Where these speakers really prove to be top of the line, is in the midrange. I never heard speakers before wich sounded as clear, and narural as the Timeframes V6.0 in the midrange area. Everyone has his own opinion, but I think they look great!

Strengths:
Extreme nice midrange, and incredible good soundstage. The sound is very well-balanced.

Weaknesses:
There is no real weakness. The only thing i can think off is the fact they don't have be-wire capability's.

Similar Products Used:
*Infinity pos 1 (or something like that, an older model) *DCM timeframe V8.0 (the bigger version; 8inch woofers in stead of 6inch. They don't sound that much different) *B&W DM 110 (No way near the DCM's. They kost not even half the money.. hehe ) I've heard dome other newer models of B&W, Mission, KEF and JBL, but they didn't sound as good as the DCM's.

Review 5 of 8

Summary:
I bought these six years ago when they were called Time Frame 600's. They are the best in the 500-1,000 dollar range. Over the last year or so, I have been looking at other speakers to upgrade to. Haven't found anything yet that sounds as good at the 1,000 dollar price range. Guess I'll hang on to these for another six years!

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

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.
