    Yeah, finding stands for them is challenging. Noel at Skylan should be able to help you out, http://www.skylanstands.com/

    Tell Polk you are a Club member to receive the discounted price of $48.00 each.

    If you are going to replace the tweeters, do it right the first time - get the RD0198 (not 94) tweeters and update your crossovers with the TL mod (search on here for the instructions). The results will be worth it. I have a set of CRS+ with the TL mod and they blow me away every day.
    +1, I would also recommend replacing the 16 mh Dimensional Inductor with a lower resistance Inductor. I replaced them on my 2A-TLs, and my CRS+s, and the increase in the quantity and quality of the low bass was astounding. The CRS+ model is slightly lacking in that area to begin with. The caveat, is that your amp must be able to handle 4 ohm speaker loads. The CRS+ is 6 ohm nominal now, but will drop considerably with the inductor modification.

    Another +1. Do your homework on the mods that can be done here, and make sure you're doing things right the first time. You have a set of speakers with incredible potential.
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Once you move the speakers forward and ensure the interconnect is good, change the polarity of one speaker cable.

    You'll know right away if that was the problem. I'm also thinking, it's a polarity issue.

    Do those have the double tweeters or single?

    ...and nice Marantz.
