    What the frig are all those keywords for?

    For searches--If somebody were searching for "Totem" they would get his ad in their results since "Totem" is in his list of keywords, thus increasing the visibility of his ad. With the massive amount of keywords he is vastly increasing his visibility at the expense of skewing search results for the masses.

    Read up on the Passive radiator push test
    Ask if any upgrades have been done and if any drivers have been replaced at all. Also check if the seller has the interconnect cable and if they still have the boxes and/or owners manual. Obviously they are not critical, but are nice to have if they have them.

    Picked them up this morning. Very nice set of SRS II's. Wood is very good. Cloth is OK, but could stand replacement because of a few pulls. All drivers move, and the PR test was great. Have not hooked them up yet, but will this weekend sometime. Thanks coolsax! :)

    These were listed a few weeks ago starting at 900. It would be a good deal to get them but it will be a lot of work.

    LOL....that and the fact that they have an SRS blade/blade sticker on back yet they are pin/blade 1.2's. More than likely they are wired in reverse polarity. The positives should be on the left and neg's on the right for the 1.2 and 1.2 TL's. The binding post cup must be removed in order to confirm the reversed polarity.

    Hello everyone. I am not sure if this is the right place to post this or not, but I am looking for some ideas on the value of my SDA SRS 3.1TL speakers.... I am the original owner (purchased in 1991 or 1992 I think) and they are in excellent working condition. The fabric on at least one of them has a little cat damage and there is some signs of age/use on the wood - but nothing major... I have the original manual but the boxes were left at the store (Sassfrass Audio or Bryn Mawr Stereo on Concord Pike in Wilmington, DE) since they wouldn't even fit in my Mom's station wagon with the boxes way back when...

    Anyway, I am not sure I want to part with my "babies" - but the reality of the situation is that with 3 small children in a small house, they are not likely to be used properly for a number of years and it may be time to pass them to someone who can use them if the money is right....

    Any thoughts on the value or a good venue to sell them would be much appreciated. I live in Southern New Jersey - about an hour for Philly and Wilmington, DE...

    Thanks!!
