    I have the original boxes. Let me think about how to seal them. Any suggestions would be great.
    Excellent!
    I can throw a tarp over them or something.That's so easy a caveman (and maybe even Pepster) can do it.

    Know anybody or do you have access to shrink wrap? Just shrink wrap the boxes and that should keep all but a flood from them.

    Update....

    Can you believe, I bought these in May 2013, and just met rromeo923 on 9/24/2014 to get them???

    Crazy, what a guy, he could have sold them again and there would have been nothing I could do. I had no idea of who he was or where to find him,,,talk about a man of integrity - the best.

    The speakers are great, I haven't had a lot of time with them as I am again on the road, but they do sound good.

    Other than initally setting them up wrong, had them reversed as far as right and left I was thinking WTH, then noticed my mistake. I love them and believe me, rromeo923 is a stand up guy and can be trusted completely.

    Thanks a lot Rick!!!!

    Billy and I had a good time with this. Definitely makes for a crazy story. When we finally got together, meeting half way in Huntington WV we had a fun time over a few beers. Billy is a great guy! Who pays for speakers and then waits over a year to get them??? Lol!! Glad it all worked out in the end!

    I enjoyed it a lot!! I didn't realize at the moment we were meeting where "We are Marshell" originated... A great town and beautiful. I took my German Shepard dog with me and she had a blast, some photos for you all...Except I can't figure how on my computer????

    Just another thing wrong here....

    Thanks a lot. I have enjoyed them so far, but I had to go out of town again for the week. Getting tired of travel - I have spent a little over 60 days in Canada since early summer.

    I am ready to be home for a long while.

    LOL, that one is Rick's.



    BTW, I know of another Polkie that sold a pair of SDA SRS's that took the buyer almost 2 years to pick up and he had to be pushed hard to do so. Crazy!

    OK, with the "signatures" on these they must be worth at least $10,000.00??

    By the way, Rick told me you used lampcords for all your cables????

    congrats and great story. I followed it for a while and at that time thought I'd never sell my SDA's! Now that I have and moved up, I still miss that old vibe, but not a single regret as mine too went to a newer member and he loves them. Post some pics when you can.
