    Thanks Ender! But it's only for two subs and two rear surrounds. It's not for a complete SRT system and no controller also.
    Trying out Different Audio Cables is a Religious Affair. You don't discuss it with anyone. :redface::biggrin:

    Actually, it's the front right channel, plus the two subs and the two surround channels.

    I set up the sda srt rears on my bedroom set. HUGE difference in sound.
    It's like i'm listening to a new different set of srt speakers.
    I have a single left side srt speaker i was using as a center speaker.
    With the right side speaker, i can have a stereo pair.

    How do you have them running as a center Ed? Sda/Stereo arrays, through the center in/outputs on the control center?

    Sda srt speakers are connected to the left surround and right surround.
    They are connected to an additional controller for sda soundstage control.

    My original setup consisted of 4 SRT satelitte/subwoofers with 2 srt controller, 1 srt satellite used for a center speaker and 2 fx1000 for surround back channels.
    This was used in my living room.

    I had this system in the living room. Then i drove to texas to buy another set of SRT.
    That system was abused to hell so i refused to buy those and instead bought a rt5000p
    he had. I used the rt5000p for 1 year in my bedroom.
    I bought a SRT center recently and decided to split my living room system.

    My living room system became a regular SRT set with 4 fx1000 for a 7.2 system.
    My bedroom system consisted of SRT plus 4 ls/fx for a 7.2 system.
    My recent SRT purchase converted my living room system to a full SRT system using 4 sat/subs, SRT center and 2 fx1000 for a 7.4 system.
    My bedroom system now consists of SRT sat/sub fronts, SRT center, SDA SRT rear surrounds with 2 controllers and 2 ls/fx for surround back channel for a 7.2 system.

    I currently have an extra center,left side sat and a few extra controllers along with an extra pair of ls/fx and fx1000. My rt5000p are in storage.

    :eek:

    I honestly couldn't imagine the amount of information you'd get using sats as a center! I couldn't get over how much was there with dual srt centers, hard to imagine really....

    I'd love to have 2 more subs at the rear and change my 500i's to 1000's but at present i don't have the room for it.

    Your thoughts please Ed...

    I'm considering getting a friend (speaker maker) to have a look at the control center to see if it can be altered. I want to see if there is a way to remove the -6db (IIRC) at 16hz.

    I highly recommend the fx1000.
    It may not be a big deal to have that mod on your controller.

    The 1000's, yeah great speaker, i passed up a pair over here and have regretted it ever since.

    I think i'll get this guy to have a look at the controller and see if it at least can be done. I know the subs are up to it and at present they're hardly even taxing the Verastarr, i've yet to have the clipping lights even flicker. It may mean that i have to run a dedicated circuit for it, but i was already considering that anyway....

    I am very close to him. Sure wish this was a complete set. How hard would it be to get the missing Left channel and the controller?

    BTW ESAVINSON, would you have it in your heart to let another polkie experience the SRT's? i.e. sell an extra left channel and a controller (if you have them)? :D

    I'd say pretty hard to find a single one, it has to be the exact channel being an sda speaker. Value, i paid 800usd for my stereo pair, but that was the deal of the year. ;)

    One controller runs a pair, they can be run without it (i think) but sda cant be utilized.

    I called the guy and he has no idea where the left would have gone since he wasn't the one that did the install. Apparently the previous owner gave them away! What to do. Can't really use them without both mains and how in the world do you go and buy just the left channel anywhere except from someone who owns just the left channel......:p

    One other question for the ICE fanatics here. Would an SC-07 have enough power to drive a set of SRT's?

    I've never heard an ice amp but to get things going anything with decent power should do it. You will need 4ch of power to run both arrays.... I had my Denon A1 (5803?) running the SDA array and a NAD 218 running the stereo array. It was good, loud enough, but to me they just needed more power.

    They'll set you on a quest (i guarantee it), that you wont be able to stop....:D
