    Holy Crap Trey! I need to order some of those for my 2.3TL's!

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    FWIW - not advertising by no means but I know some people wanted these inductors and did not have the money at the time or whatever the case may have been. I am doing another inductor order here soon that I can throw these on - this order only took 2-3 weeks but it usually takes 6 to 8 weeks.

    Very nice Trey!

    I am still debating what capacitors, resistors and binding posts to use. Decisions, decisions! I am happy with my Sonicaps and Mills, but I am always looking to make improvements.

    Thank you sir!

    The ESA + Mundorf is my favorite if the MR is not in the budget. The MR is the best of the best in my opinion, granted I cant afford Duelund... lol

    They were ones you had upgraded in the past...

    The SDA was Solen, stock inductors. David L is the current owner... It has two five watt mills resistors wired in series for the resistors....

    Trey and I talked....I do not recall who I did these for and since I never use Solen caps I'm thinking the owner must have supplied them. So I'm curious, who is or was the original owner of these speakers?
