    No cable, no sda effect. Keep the cable connected.

    I have the SDA-1's and just picked up a crown psa-2 amp last week... I highly reccommend it... I thought they sounded great before but I had no idea what they were capable of with 450 watts each...
    Home Theater:
    Denon 3805
    2 sda-1's up front
    2 monitor 10's for the center
    2 JBL LX300 surrounds
    1 Velodyne FSX-12
    1 M&K V-1B

    Other room:
    2 original Acoustic Research AR3's
    2 JBL Eon 15 (just to piss off the neighbors)
    crown com-tech 400 THX

    spb,
    You just have to build the AI-1 interconnect as reeltrouble just did. Good thread over in electronics. With it in place then you can run bridged Carvers. Here's the link:
    http://clubpolk.polkaudio.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23442

    Until then try the Carvers in a vertical bi-amp arrangement. You just might decide building an AI-1 is not all that high on the priority list...

    Nice looking speakers.. I really like the look of the 1C's...

    And of course your son is terminally cute... He needs a Polk tee-shirt for Christmas...
    More later,
    Tour...
