Re: So I built this...
Yeah, well, if I made the enclosures for mine to recommended enclosure volume, the enclosures alone would total about 1.5 cubic feet. That's a box that is 18 inches wide by 18 inches tall by 8 inches deep for the internal dimensions. Add an inch and a half in width, depth and height to make up for materials and you're at 19.5 x 19.5 by 9.5. That a sizable and heavy box to walk out to the pool with. Especially when you factor in the materials plus the drivers and electronics. Even worse when the pool is about 600 feet way from your back door. That's a long way to walk in flip flops with 45 pounds of entertainment and still manage to hold on to your beer.

Re: So I built this...
Nice job! Would the sound benefit from some damping material added to the enclosure?

Doc, I have already seen one of the Cybertrucks wrapped in a rusted patina.

Re: Help finding an amp for Sda Srs 1.2
A 1000wpc amp in your price range means a pro amp and you don't want one of those.
For every 3dB increase in volume it takes twice the power. So, for a 90dB @ 1 watt efficient speaker such as the Polks in question to obtain a very loud 107dB would take 64 watts, to obtain a hearing damage level of 110dB would take 132 watts and to cause permanent hearing damage at 119dB would take 1056 watts.
Quality over quantity wins the day, every day and twice on Sunday.
What are you using for an amp right now?

Set up properly, they will transform what expectations are and change the path of your audio journey FOREVER. Do not buy these if you are content with what you have. Buy them if you want to find out what you have been missing and are not afraid to allow your ears to gain control of your wallet.
Great speakers, great seller, and a hearty congratulations to the lucky new owner!
That's exactly what happened to me... hence the 1.7i's. Truth be told though I was very, very content with the LRS but when that smoking good deal on a 4 month old pair of 1.7i's landed literally in my own back yard I couldn't resist.

Re: 1.2 to 1.2TL
Untouched OEM crossover
The largest choke is mounted to the center plate and the board is mounted to the choke with plastic standoffs.
For the rookies who don’t get it a choke is a specific type of inductor as there are many kinds. Everything used in a crossover is a choke. Some are there to smooth current and some are part of the tuned LC and RC networks and some yet to simply filter noise.
