Polk SDA 2.3TL $800 Local Pickup Northern Virginia

Options
Putting this pair up for sale. They have RDO tweeters, Larry's rings and dynamat on the passive radiators and midwoofer drivers, and the original pin/blade SDA cable. A couple of the binding posts appear to have been replaced by the original owner as they are gold plated rather than the originals. No other issues. They sound great. The rings and dynamat really tightened up the low end and provide better clarity/less ringing across the board. I'm moving on to try different types of speakers, which is the only reason for sale.

Price is $800 pickup only in the Northern Virginia area.

    Nice deal they look like they are in nice shape, someone's going to get a good deal hopefully they stay in the family. I guess your moving on to something different, I bought a wonderfull pair of 2.3tls off of Ryan fully modded and I'm content and have no desire to even consider anything else, somebody should grab these. What are you going to replace them with?

    I have owned Spendor speakers before and will probably go back to those for a while. Different, but not necessarily better at everything.

    daaaaaaaaaaaaaaag...
    the hoarder in me says yes yes yes
    the adult in me says no no no, and just slapped down my outreached hands.

    friggin' sweet deal on these. significantly less than I paid for mine. mine had the tweeters, but none of the rest, AND mine need work.
    I disabled signatures.

    Emlyn...did you install the rings and tweeters, or did the previous owner? Are the crossovers stock?

    I did the upgrades. The crossovers are untouched. I have had this pair for around 7 years.

    This is a really good deal if you want some of the best SDA's ever produced. They already have the RD-0198's, $300 worth of upgrades, + the rings.

    That is $800.00 well spent.
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.
