Besides, I've already got SDA SRS 1.2s (tweeters and most of the crossover parts have arrived), SDA-1Cs, and SRS SDA 3.1TLs. My basement is kinda full!

1.2TL for $2000 in downstate NY.
These would look so ridiculous in my living room
.
Also on ebay for the same price with "make an offer" option. -
SRS2's in the NE corner of the continental US. Looks like he's got other stuff he needs to get rid of too.

I sold mine in comparable condition but with a bad grill cloth for $250
.
You didn’t happen to sell them to me, did you? I bought a pair of SDA 2 for $250 from a Raiders fan a few months back in Riverside somewhere... the grill covers weren’t damaged but were coming off so I stapled them back on, rubbed some oil on the wood, and replaced the tweeters with 194’s.
I’ll probably have a go at the crossovers at some point. Still plenty ways to go on the setup as well.

Yes it was Ontario. You had a whole bunch of vintage Polk up for sale at the time. I’ve been enjoying the speakers! -

SDA-2A crossovers for ~75 shipped with best offer. They've been on for a while.
Would be great for a 2A owner who wants do crossover work at their own slow pace while listening to their stock xovers.
🤔Do I need a third set to compare modded to stock?

Better go get that!!

The LF14 bass speaker is indeed very rare. Price is very fair given the Polk Monitor 4's with Peerless tweeters will bring close to half that. If these were near me I'd buy them. I have the same Monitor 4's with Peerless, not a bad speaker, but not as good as the Monitor 5 of the same line.

Yeah I would grab that

My 7B's sound great with a subwoofer that goes as low as the LF14 or lower. What I'm not clear on is how Polk blended the LF14 with the Monitor 4's used as sattellites. The manual didn't make it clearGeorge / NJ
