    DCM TimeFrame TF600 woofers buzzing

    So it turns out I overdrove the TF 600s during a party this weekend (it was huge and the DJs got overzealous about it, it was stupid) and now any frequency under 70hz and above medium volume gets the woofers buzzing. Theres a lot of discussion about blown tweeters on these models but I can't...

    DCM TF1000 restoration

    Background story, so I bought these TF1000s almost 10 years ago without thoroughly checking them out (big mistake) because at that time I had a TF600 so I thought they would be better. Well, after I compared the 2 the TF600 to my ears sounded way better so TF1000 was shoved in a corner...

    Newly Purchased DCM TFE200s have tweeter coil rub, solutions?

    I just purchased some new old-stock DCM Time Frame Evolution 200s at a killer deal and they've been amazing so far... except for one problem: both of them appear to have tweeter coil rub to some extent. I've already isolated the issue down to the speakers themselves by swapping out the wires...

    DCM TF600 quandary

    Greetings! New member with a technical question -(couldn't find any references to the issue in a search): Have owned a pair of the DCM TF600's for many years and while I liked them, they've always been a bit "off". Turns out I have ended up with 2 right side speakers (all tweeters on upper left...

    Okay so I'm currently running the following setup (follow me here): Echo dot 3rd generation 2018→ aux cable→ Fiio A1→ 2 way headphone splitter (everything from here forward is on both ways)→ 3.5mm to raw wire→DCM KX-6 The Fiio is a great amp, but it doesn't generate enough power (I think, idk...

    Help! deciding between DCM TF600s, KLH2s and Infinity Reference SIXs (1991) or Infinity Kappas 6.5

    I need a second audio setup at my studio but but since my audi addiction is only a few months old I don't know much about speakers yet. Had my sights set on some JBL 4412A blueface modified by Kerick Sound but someone got to them first. Now I'm between these: DCM TF600 KLH 2 Infinity Reference...

    Anyone want DCM TimeFrame TF600's for $75?

    Hi, I found a pair of sequential serials (!) DCM TimeFrame TF600's at the Spokane, WA Goodwill and won the online auction - but since I'm in Maryland I will probably have no choice but to not pay for them and let Goodwill re-auction them (they're being very good about it, since they'd shuffled...

    80s Integra/DCM System

    I am in the process of putting together systems based on decade from the 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s. It has been a lot of fun researching and hunting down equipment. I would like some input on the 80s system. A while back, I picked up a set of DCM TF500 speakers, which have really impressed me...

    Speaker (DCM TF700) pickup from GW in Lansing, MI?

    Hi, would anyone be able to pickup from the Charlotte Goodwill and give a short term (few days to few weeks) home to a pair of DCM TimeFrame 700's? A very kind member here has offered to store them and help transport them to D.C., but he can't get to Lansing during the Goodwill pickup window...

    Lineaum LT-1000 or DCM TF400 II - which is better?

    Looking to compare the Lineaum LT-1000's to the DCM TF400 II. Regardless of price, which is better? I would use them for stereo LP playback mostly, and I have the room to put them a few feet off the wall in a mid-sized living room. Also, seems the DCMs need at least 100wpc+, how about the...

    DCM speaker comparison: TimeFrame TF-600, TF-700, TF-1000, Time Window 1a

    Hey all. Long time listener, first time caller. I know there's many DCM fans on this forum. I wrote up this post for the epic 90+ page "Whatever happened to Steve Eberbach" thread over on AVSForum, but it ended up being so long that I figured I would share it here as well. I did a lot of reading...

    Need a little help.

    I’m a novice looking to upgrade my speakers and wondering about the following choices: $75 DCM TF-250 or $100 Smaller Advent - Great shape, all drivers work and have been refoamed. Someone went through and dampened the inside of the cabinet, added film caps in the crossover and set these up to...

    DCM Time Windows value vs infinity column ii's.

    Good day to all. I have an opportunity to pick up some near mint time windows for $200. Should they be nabbed at this price? They also have a set on infinity column ii's for $300. Any thoughts on which is the "better" speaker? Thanks y'all.

    DCM CX-27 UPGRADE DRIVERS?

    Hello, I've had a pair of DCM CX-27 speakers since the '90s and recently re-capped the crossovers with Mundorf Supremes. They do sound better but now I'm wondering if replacing the drivers would be of benefit. Can anyone recommend any specific replacements?

    DCM Triple Time System

    Hi All: I stumbled into a mint condition DCM TripleTime system yesterday. I've found some info, but not a ton. The system consists of two half time satellite speakers, and one "doubletime" subwoofer. Anyone have any idea on what a fair valuation is for these? Thanks in advance.

    DCM TF 1000 for $250. Worth it?

    I found a listing on craigslist advertising these speakers for $250, they look like they're in good shape and the seller says that they have been "recently gone through". I was wondering if they would be a good deal and an upgrade to what I currently have. Currently, I'm using a set of TF600s...

    Time Frame 2000 SCORE!

    Say hello to SN 446 and 447! These were on Seattle's CL for a week advertised just as Time Frames. The pic did not show scale and I thought 600s or so. As I had just bought a pair of Paradigms I left these alone. Then One day I read the post. One frantic phone call later and Pay Pal they...

    DCM TimeWindow Seven clone project

    DCM TimeWindow Seven clone project. This is something that I’ve wanted to do for years and for many reasons. These are remarkable speakers and as Steve Eberbach has said, that they took the TimeWindow technology as far as they could go. Truly his "signature" series. I've been collecting...

    DCM Time Windows

    Just purchased a pair of Time Windows. They are in decent shape. One sock is deteriorating, so I plan to replace both of them. Due to their age I am thinking they could stand to have the crossovers re-capped. I am not sure how to get the speakers "opened up" to get at the c/o's. This particular...
