Re: Vintage Monitor and SDA Speaker Deals
Think I am down to five sets.... Nope, six. All Polk Vintage stuff. That is if LSi15's count as vintage.
Monitor 5, SDA-SRS2's, SDA2b's, RTA 15tl, SDA-CRS, RTA 8t's. Wait, that's seven! I gotta sell some speakers man.

Re: Vintage Monitor and SDA Speaker Deals
I originally got into Polk in the 80’s when I got my Monitor 10’s. I still listen to them daily in my basement office. My 5’s are a part of the bedroom system. I have some 7’s but something isn’t right with them. Someday I’ll look into them. My actual office has some M12’s. My main system in the den has the SDA 3.1’s. The 3.1’s replaced the RTA 12c’s in my main system. Oh yea I have some 4’s on the shelf too. Hi my name is Glenn and I have a problem. Im addicted to Polk’s from the 80’s.

Re: Vintage Monitor and SDA Speaker Deals
I may have used up any goodwill I had here with all the help I got from various members on my RTAs, since I would feel like I needed to repeat that process to bring these up to snuff, also. All the good comments about 7’s has me thinking about them when they come around.
Not true, also fixed your post.. 😁

Re: Anyone using Kratom?
From the Mayo Clinic:
Researchers continue to study the effects of kratom. Studies so far have found that kratom has many safety issues.
Kratom has been reported to react with other medicines. This may lead to severe effects, such as liver damage and death. More research is needed.
In a study testing kratom as a treatment for symptoms of quitting opioids, called withdrawal, people who took kratom for more than six months reported withdrawal symptoms like those from opioid use. And people who use kratom may begin craving it. They may need treatments given for opioid addiction, such as buprenorphine (Brixadi, Sublocade, others) and buprenorphine-naloxone (Suboxone, Zubsolv).
Kratom also affects babies during pregnancy. When a pregnant person uses kratom, the baby may be born with symptoms of withdrawal and need treatment.
Kratom products have been found to have heavy metals, such as lead, and harmful germs, such as salmonella, in them. Salmonella poisoning can be fatal. The FDA has linked more than 35 deaths to salmonella-tainted kratom.
Kratom is not regulated in the United States. But federal agencies are taking action to fight false claims about kratom. In the meantime, your safest choice is to work with your healthcare professional to find other treatments.
