I just bought 2 pair of SDA CRS+ the single tweeter ones for $125 thanks to some encouragement by F1nut. This guy had a pair posted for $75 when I got there he had 2 pair 3 were in good shape the forth a leftie has 3 of the plastic plugs broken off and some finish peelage on the left rear corner, can I get those plastic plugs somewhere.
The only other problem no interconnects and they are pin blade where can I find those I heard Polk has blade blade available these sounded nice hooked up to a Marantaz 2245 Iam pretty excited and will figure out how to post picks this weekens. will these sound nice hooked up to a Yamaha AVR 120 wpc or a Onkyo TX38? or what should I be looking for to power these one Pair or two pair at a time?

    By plastic plugs I mean the ones that hold the grills on. I left these in the Truck tonight the wife almost had a carrdiac the last time when I brought some Klipsch home, now 2 more pair of speakers, I cant imagine how she is going to react.

    Lasereth I'am sorry to sound naive, but do you mean a single strand of speaker wire connected to the pin part of the hookup on the back of each speaker and nothing to the blade part?

    Dang, two pair for $125? Wow, that's REALLY neat. Where did you get them? I'd be lucky to find ONE pair for that price...

    Oh yes, congrats!

    A guy that owns a storage space facility had them one of his customers had not paid his storage fee for a while, he said he has not been able to get a hold of the guy for quite some time, so as it stated in his contract he could sell the belogings due to default on the rent, if I had more money I could of went crazy the guy was a Dj or something there was a couple of Technics 1200
    's and a bang and olfsun TT, the guy had good prices on everything. I really did not plan on buying 2 pair if I ever decide to part with one of them I will remember you.

    You got an excellent deal, congrats!

    Parts Express sells the plastic pins for the grill cover. They are not exactly the same, but should work well enough.

    sorry gudnoyez.

    It's fairly easy to add some nice binding posts. I used the Cardas posts from Sonicraft on my 2B's and the Daytons from parts express on my CRS+'s. Here's what they look like on mine. (blackberry camera sucks)

    Cool, that's awesome of you! I've always wanted to get my ears on a pair of these.

    The pin in the center of a male RCA plug will fit the SDAs round pin hole, just remove the "skirt" around the outside to allow a more pleasurable penetration, solder em up with some 16-14ga. wire and yer in bidness.:wink:
