SDA 1C and Monitor 70

OK I am selling my Modded SDA 1C's and my almos tnew pair of Monitor 70's... No shipping on either, but we might be able to work out meeting up somewhere. I am in Niles, MI (49120)

First the Monitor 70's. They are a Cherry Set... I have the original boxes. pretty self explanatory... I would like to get $300, but make me a reasonable offer and we can talk.


The SDA 1C's are fully modded short of the tweeters... I stole the RDO-194's out of them for my SRS 2's :) Crossovers are fully upgraded. I replaced all the stock biding posts with Cardas CCGR posts, including the interconnect and used the Cardas solder to connect everything back up. I have a custom interconnect that I made with locking bananas that I will include.

I found 2 wrong drivers in them when I purchased them, so I purchased correct replacement drivers. All drivers are now correct. Overall in good shape. One of the sides is a little loose on the bottom and if it bugs you, it would need to be reglued. They also have 1/4-20 inserts for spikes. I don't have any spikes to include with them though. They also have a complete set of driver rings, including the tweeters.

All that being said... I paid $600 for them, but I stole the tweeters, and added the Cardas posts, so how about $500...

    Wow.... no interest in the SDA's? Am I priced too high? I didn't think this was too bad for an upgraded set...

    Possibly location is prohibitive? I've figured out that I live near NOONE on this forum who is trying to sell gear.

    That sounds like a reasonable price otherwise, as far as I can tell.

    Well, if they don't sell, my 5 year old has claimed them for use in the basement for "Big Speakers in front of his drums" to quote him :) He really rocks out and is tired of not hearing his music through his little boom box! He really wants the SDA 1Cs... :eek: but I think he will probably end up with the Monitor 70 :biggrin:

    I am willing to drive about an hour or so to meet up with someone if that helps.

    "Inactive Sales Thread" Bump. I think I have a serious buyer for the Monitor 70's, but they aren't sold yet. 1C's still up for grabs! Somebody needs these :)

    It looks like there might be a Polkie meeting down towards Indianapolis on May 8th and I could bring either set (or both) with me.

    Not that it helps, but I'd love to play with these. My being in Houston doesn't help.

    Surprised these are still here. I'd try eBay with local pickup only. Sda's are doing good in the Chicago area as of late.

    I second this idea, SDA's are doing pretty well lately. I can't believe these are still around.
