But I don't have the specs on x/o points or power handling capabilities although I would think they would handle pretty much whatever you throw at them. -
My mistake, the $325.00 Bluebook value is for each, so that's $650.00 for the pair.Political Correctness'.........defined

racer,
FWIW we heard these at Russ' during the TX Polk Fest II and consensus was we could not get them to sound as good as many others we heard that weekend. The mid-range just seemed a little muddled...More later,

That's interesting since they have the same mid range drivers as some highly regarding Polk's ...
Anyone care to venture a reason ? Construction of the enclosure ? -
It could have been placement, since we did not put alot of effort into optimization....it was a simple demo with high power and great material
The SDA, RTA and Monitor are all different animals regardless of their use of similar drivers.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint. -
Stu did make a comment about the difficulties of melding an array of so many mid-woofers.
doro is right in that we did not play with them as much as we might, but on the other hand other speakers in the same place the 15's were sounded great...More later,
