    Trey, I wish you hadn't posted this pic. I've been trying to keep my secret project a secret. This is my all out assault to prove several thousand dollars later an SDA can be a high end audiophile speaker. :rolleyes:

    ...And still run of the mill, nothing special woofers and tweeters. Smart.

    No but I completely replaced the stock cabinet with a carbon fiber granite composite that weighs 1,500 pounds a piece.

    The owner of those speakers started a thread about them here a couple years ago.

    Depending on the speaker, there is a big difference.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....
