Looking for opinions and value for these.

How do these compare to SDAs?

Thanks,
Keith

    Value depends on region...

    As for comparison to SDAs, I'd say they present differently since there is no crosstalk cancellation, but the stage will be clean and tight, thought not as wide or deep. The 15s need ROOM... And plenty of space off the back wall.

    This is based on what I've heard from my SDAs and my 11ts.

    They do not compare.

    Thank you all for your responses. Obviously these are not as cherished as the SDA family but are they a good speaker?
