Not Dunlavys.
Duntech 2001s are still the speaker of choice for many music business professionals, especially the "old school" types. My friend Bob Saglio sold his ex-Jeff Rowland pair of 2001s to Steely Dan mastering engineer Scott Hull.
2001s have sealed bass loading, so no room boom (assuming a large enough room and semi-decent setup), two 12-inch woofers per side, and a cabinet large enough to guarantee within 2 dB at 27.5 Hz and very usable output at 20 Hz. The Dynaudio soft dome tweeter means that you can listen all day and not want to shoot yourself.
Furthermore, they are dirt cheap--even if you privately import a new pair--they still make them in AU.
Ciao,
