    I MIGHT consider selling my SRS 2's with new RDO Tweeters.
    They are in Tampa.
    I THINK I might have a line on some SRS TL's down in Naples, Fl.

    Would be willing to help facilitate any club Polk members in purchasing - I don't have audiophile ears, but I could verify expected function. I could also pick up and store if you have to schedule to come get them (if the seller needs to get them out).

    I just picked up a pair of original SRS, or I would be all over this.

    I'm still a newbie, but if you are interested in my assistance, I can validate my identity fairly easily (not in the public forum, via pm - identity theft problem in the past). Hey, if you are local, I could even help transport these things (conversion van).

    I don't have the knowledge to give much input here (I've been an information leach), so this is my way of offering to give back.

    If he has the boxes then maybe he has the Bass braces?

    These are SWEET....but still no bids ?

    The 2.3's I just got have the bass braces as well....I was wondering what that metal knob at the top back of the cabinets was...it was covering an embedded t-nut.....the rest of the hardware was in the box...along with an extra non-common ground IC ( Isolation transformer box was original Polk...not a homemade job )

    Sellers are looking for the bass braces but don't know what they're looking for. I told them they were steel. That's all I know. What do they look like???

    They are allthread with a wall mount. Those really look nice and the guy has the original boxes. $1600 is a steal man! I didn't notice does it come with the AI-1 cable or the straight SDA wire?

    The seller just said they come with the interconnect cable?.. What's the difference???... They'll go for a lot more than $1600. I'm praying they don't go too high.

    The difference is that the AI-1 has a transformer in-line. With the straight interconnect if you amps (mono blocks or stereo amps) that are not common ground you have to strap the amps together. Not all amps can be strapped. In this case you would use the AI -1 which allows you to use two non-common ground amplifiers to drive the 1.2 TLs.
