Here you go. Download and uncompress files to an empty folder, load index.html with your internet browser.
I'm not going to release the gerber files period. (Maybe later if my health doesn't improve.)
There will be no group buy or gofundme, so don't ask.
Sorry if I sound like an a$$ but I have my reasons that I don't want to get into here.

    I doubt anyone thinks poorly of you. Intellectual property has value. Thanks for the excellent post!

    Truly a loss to the SRS SDA community, I'm so happy to have logged in to see this and download the .rar before things were taken down (wouldn't have found this thread if I hadn't seen the announcement banner on the website)

    Thanks for all you've done, Tony! I wish you the best and good health.

    Thanks very much, I have one question: are the crossovers for the SDA SRS the same as the SDA-SRS TL?
    Thank you

    I have them all saved on my computer. It saves all the files in a Folder called "Gimpod website". You can access a local version of the Homepage by clicking on the index.html file in the sub-folder. From there, you can navigate and open PDFs much like the original site. If you are having a hard time opening the RAR file, install a free software like 7-Zip to help you. (www.7-zip.org)

    No. He had some reasons that he did not want to provide the gerber file.

    I had no trouble opening them Jesse. DL then made a new folder called Polk Audio Gimpod then moved the .RAR into the folder and uncompressed with WinRAR. Thank you Tony, thank you very much. For everything!

    He never mentioned to me about being upset or getting pressured.

    Hopefully he didn't drill holes all over it deleting half the traces...
