OK folks, time to pass this fantastic deal on a pair of SDA SRS 2 to the next Polkie. A local forum member sold these to me at a smokin' price so I will do the same. These sound superb, but cosmetically they need some work. I would rate them 5.5/10 but they have a lot of potential.
Here are the upgrades:
Crossovers are original.
Binding posts are upgraded.
IC cable is original and looks to be in good shape.
Drivers are Dynamatted and seals are Armacell foam.
Tweets are RDO's with original gaskets.
Larry's rings are on, but no tweeter brackets (not available at the time).
Most of the MW dust caps have indentations; no effect on sound.
Spikes are removed but will be included so you can use if/when you like.
Cabinets are not great like I said earlier. All caps are solid (jointed ~3" pieces) and a few of the joints on the tops have split in a couple places. The left top cap has some water staining. One of the bottoms was replaced. The left back has some surface marking of some sort.
A lot of money is invested in these speakers.
$400 local pick-up or I can meet an established member in the area.
I will post some pictures soon...

I wish. Last thing I need is another set of speakers, but the wife is in Charlotte until Sunday... Close enough to make a pick up for the love of her life, right?

Did I mention these have Larry's rings and upgraded tweeters?

This is a great deal that i would be all over if i was local. The tweeters alone are worth half the asking price. Glws

I bought new expensive beautiful speakers to replace these but they could not replace the SDA's. I learned a lesson!

What did you try to replace them with??

Dear lord all 3 of your FS threads were just a big tease, @Conradicles -
I'm also curious, what did you try to replace with and what were the differences that made you keep the SDAs.

I can't tell yet. Sorry for the tease!

These are back on the market for sale. $400 local pick-up in Western NC. I could part them out, but that would be a shame!

Not really a new poster was just looking for mw 6509's and personally I'd buy the 15" passives off of you.
