Hey guys, I tried to post this earlier but it did not come through. I am very new to the site, but wanted you to look up my SDA-SRS 2's that I have on ebay. They are in MINT condition and anyone of you can PM me for first shots. I am not a fan of ebay, but I know the rules on this site and can not sell yet. It's your option to contact me or not, they are in really good condition and I am also open to someome convincing me not to sell them and keep them for my next house....please do so!!

Thanks guys, the main speakers are a set of 1.2TL's that rock. I am about to get a set of faceplates from larry, so they are the total package.

Dan

    I wish you good luck on your sale but you should keep them. My SRSII's are awesome and you'll have to spend a lot of cash to out perfrom them but thats up to you. Living in Hudson I guess you have enough cash to buy whatever. I used to live in Hudson Ohio, 48 Sussex Drive.

    So honestly, should I really keep them? I think their great, but could use the extra money( but don't need to). I am 31 and now that their up on ebay I think I may regret this move. Guys tell me your honest thoughts!!

    seriously, if its SDA keep it as there is nothing you can buy for the money you will get for them that will put as big a smile on your face as these do

    You are not trying to build your post count to sell them here are you?
    On another subject :) what are you using to drive your speakers?

    Keep em. Getting harder to find these days, and nothing in its price range will come close.

    I've seen your listings up for a few days now. They look good. Congrats on selling the 1A's--I was going to bid/buy but you're nearly 500 miles away--an 8 hour trip to get to you plus another 500 miles and 8 hours to get back. Didn't you list a pair of vanilla Monitor 10's? Those are nice too, especially if you're in West Penn/West NY or Ohio.

    Thanks! I did have an older pair of Monitor 10's up on ebay as well, but nobody bid on them. I think they sound great, but I just have a to many speakers for my small house..ha ha

    oh well, I am glad I took the SRS 2's off. I think those versions will be harder and harder to find over the years. I can't wait to have a couple larger rooms my 1.2TL's and srs 2's to really open up.

    Two words: active storage.

    Until then, dawdle with CRS's. :p My uncle owns a pair of SRS's that he upgraded to 1.2TL spec. The "early" SRS's (SRS-1's and SRS-2's) are uncommon at very best. But they're very good speakers. What were you driving them with?

    That looks like a great deal if they are in good condition...very funny how people never post pics? Digital camera's are becoming extinct with the cell phones having them built in these day..yet people still don't know how to post a pick (but can figure out how to post it on Craigslist to begin with..ha ha)

    Nice find, I am sure someone will gooble these up...tell tell!

    Is that a bad price? Talk to the guy, he might lower it.

    ok fella's, I caved in and put them back on ebay at a higher price tag to make me feel better. This is one of those, I hope nobody buys them but if they are willing to pay me this amount then I can sleep at night. I just can't get past how much better the 1.2TL's sound to me. I know there are better deals out there, but they are mint incase one of you is near Ohio and wants to PM me. No worries if not, the CR list above is a great price...move on it!
