Bring Back the SDA - Fan List

The SurroundBar doesn't "get away" with it, as it follows the same SDA principle they all do.
What I meant was it "gets away" with it because even though it's a smaller foot print it couldn't be achieved if it were vertical. The reason it can follow the same SDA principle IS because its horizontal. I wasn't inferring it was some new principle even though it uses DSP as well.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -
The current use of SDA technology is not the same as the SDA speakers of old. That's what, some of us at least, would like to see made again. The excuse of folks wanting a smaller footprint doesn't really hold water as there is a vast number of large speakers still being made and selling today. Granted, it's a limited market compared to the Polk of todays target market and that is the real issue.Political Correctness'.........defined

The SurroundBar 360 uses DSP coupled with the SDA array.
Yes, and it's not any fun
And it's not a stereo pair of speakers, kind of of the subject, unless your are helping me make my point that anything new coming from Polk SDA related will be DSP driven.Dodd - Battery Preamp
Monarchy Audio SE100 Delux - mono power amps
Sony DVP-NS999ES - SACD player
ADS 1230 - Polk SDA 2B
DIY Stereo Subwoofer towers w/(4) 12 drivers each
Crown K1 - Subwoofer amp
Outlaw ICBM - crossover
Beringher BFD - sub eq
Where is the remote? Where is the $%#$% remote!

The last few posts make zero sense so I'll move on.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.

Yes sir:)MillerLiteScott wrote: »Like a CRS+? With dedicated (fillable) stands.
Put a set of 2B or CRS crossovers in a pair of LSi9's and sit them on their sides.
Over simplified, Yes. Would it work? Don't thinks so because of the impedance. But the basic theory, design and concept are right there.
Prototype pair by October.:D
I'm working on it. One idea is an in wall solution just to go even further into the "you can't do that in a small package" by small mind mentality:rolleyes:Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks

That's the main point. The SDA technology with today's technology in reproduction should yield some pretty sweet sounds. I'm working on a system that employs both, but it would be nice if Polk could resurrect a fantastic sound for the masses to enjoy once again....some of us at least, would like to see them made again.....
One can hope right? ~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -
I sold my Klipschorns and held onto my SRS II's. I simply adore them!
