Hey guy's,

I finally scored a set of the SDA-1 speakers for $400 CDN which is probably $1 USD, LOL.....

Anyway, I'm really satisfied with them and I can't believe how they sound.

The cable that connects the speakers together seems to be a bit warn but I'm sure I can patch it up back to new.

The surrounds are excellent, all speakers work good, and the box appears to still be air tight.

Definitely a keeper.

I already own two sets of the Monitor 10's. Very nice as well and will complement the SDA-1's.

    Ah, good questions.

    They are the SDA - 1's Originals. Why do you ask Comfortablycurt?

    They have 2 tweeters (silver) side by side, 4 x 6" mids and a passive radiator 12", they also have two very small port holes between the tweeters and the top two 6" mids.

    There is an interconnect wire that I haven't connected yet but will tonight.

    I can't believe how heavy these things are. Just the grills must way about 5 pounds. But very well constructed.

    The finish on the outside is wood with very light scratches which I was able to buff out using Orange oil. It's magic for wood.

    I'll post some pictures.
