400.00 for SDA 1's
Is 400.00 a good price for a pair of well kept SDA1's?

yes ,,,,it is
I'm assuming you mean 1C's?JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut) -
It doesn't say. the tweets are side by side across the top. The ad just says SDA-1.
Thanks."The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson. -
If the tweets are side by side they are either 1's or 1a's, most likely. 1's are older and have the sl1000 tweeters witht he metal plate and the 1a's have the sl2000 tweeter with the black plastic plate. Or they could be 1b's.

1's or 1A's. 1B tweeters are vertical.Political Correctness'.........defined

what is the difference between the tweeter signals on the 1b and 1c?

Great. Would 400.00 be ok if in good condition? Or should I wait for something else?"The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Do the 1's with the side by side tweeters have the dimensional tweeter? If so, are those the ones he'd want? Or maybe wait for something better?Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

If I buy these, what are the recommended mods for these?"The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Sweet looking speakers,good price-Go for it:DLinn AV5140 fronts
Linn AV5120 Center
Linn AV5140 Rears
M&K MX-70 Sub for Music
Odyssey Mono-Blocs
SVS Ultra-13 Gloss Black:D -

DO NOT BUY THEM $400.00 is out of line. You can get SDA2a's or b's for less than that. And they will sound better and far easier to moddify also less expensive to mod. -
They look nice but I have to agree with NJPolker
Don't do it, the SDA technology wasn't quite there when they built those.
If you have cash to burn then offer him $250
Sal
You better agree with me or I'll have to squash you! -
I think 250 is a fair price for them. Don't worry about the tweeters, I just purchased the replacement tweeters(two of them) and will only use one per cabinet. See how they sound and if you like them, that's what is most important.
-
How long have you been looking for some SDA's?
What size room will they go into?
What are you going to use to run them?
I think these are some of the things you should think about before making the purchase. The speakers in the picture are not bad but maybe you can do better, I think you can. -
If the OP is in Los Angeles, i'm sure better pairs will come along soon enough. Personally I would pass on those.Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

Check out the SDA CRS+'s with stands on LA Craigslist. You should be able to talk him down to $275. -
Are the + CRS's a single or dual tweeter? I believe the preference is the single tweeter version.
-
The CRS+ is the single tweeter version
-
Thanks
See Brett Favre go by yet? -
I used to own the CRS+'s, single tweeter. Same XO as my 2B's, so TL-moddable. Those are kickin little speakers. Go for it!Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

I've been looking for about a month. Not much here in LA. I'm not sure what I'm going to use to run them yet. I'm just looking to get into the SDA game. Buy some, mod if necessary, build a system.
I'm not sure if any of the gear I have now will work as I don't know that much about powering SDA's. I have LSi9's and 7's now and am curious about the SDA sound as I've never heard it.
I have a Parasound HCA 2200ii, Halo A23 and a Nak CA-5 in the audio closet. Will these work?"The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson. -
Halo A23 with the CRS+'s would be really good.Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

Upgrading the CRS+ to the 4.1TL mod will net you some pretty sweet sounding speakers.
They won't have the presence of the larger SDA's, but will have more than what you're using now.Political Correctness'.........defined

Again, Ive never heard these, are you saying that they are better than my LSi9's?"The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson. -
