I am stoked! Finally gonna get a pair of SDA1B's towards the end of this month....free! They were my Dad's, then one of my brothers. He has not been using them since he "moved up" to a pair of Definitive Technology BP2002TL's last year. So I am finally getting a chance to go get them.
If anyone needs some Pony Express assistance between east Georgia and central Arkansas let me know.

Looking at gimpod's website. There are pics of very early 1C's in the same cabs as 1B's. The ones I am getting 'look' like 1B's. How can I tell it they are really early 1C's? Pull the XO's?--Gary--

Congrats. I had a pair of 1C's and sold them because they were being under-utilized in my game room. When the buyer (a CP member) came to pick them up I really wanted to back out on the sale because they sounded so good when he was auditioning them.
Enjoy!Things work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.-John Wooden -
I've got an extra blade-blade IC, I imagine we can work something out over PM.

Pull the PR, and have a look. If it's a split crossover it's a 1B, if it's a single rectangular board, it's a 1C.Home Theater/2 Channel:
