I think I'm going to look for a pair of SDA's that I can also use with my mono amps to see how it all sounds.

Honestly I kind of would like to find a pair without any mods so I can see what stock sounds like and then upgrade from there.

I'm in Central WI 54467 and would prefer something fairly local if possible.

I would be interested in like 1C's (I think can use A1), 2.3TL, 1.2TL, 3.1TL's.

I would prefer a smaller guy because the bigger are harder to move.

I'm not in any huge rush and the price has to be right.

Thanks!

    Didn't you JUST sell a pair :lol:

    Only certain serial numbered 1C's can use the AI-1.

    yeah I did. they were fully modded SDA SRS's.

    Seeing I knew I was looking at non common ground amps it wouldn't work out as I just wanted 1 main system and then maybe a pair of SDA's to throw in and out when I wanted something different than the carvers.

    Also I like the 1C size...I can lift them by myself and not require a forklift to do so. :wink: but I like 2.3's...and 1.2's...it never ends.

    I'll check the forum for the serials that can use the AI.

    I can post the serial numbers here tonight from the Compendium, which is at home, if you don't get any specific info.

    I think 1C's or 2.3TL would be a good choice. 1C's are more common as more were sold.

    I have a gorgeous pair of 1 owner 1Cs, with cable, and the serial numbers are #8561 Left and #8397 Right. From the above list, looks like they are good to go for your mono block application. I love these, they were an upgrade from my 2Bs and they sound fantastic on my Dynaco tube amp.

    I may consider selling them to you as an SRS purchase is looking promising. I am in Indianapolis. Let me know if you are interested, thanks.
