Polk/B&K

I've decided to sell some things and might sell more pending... (say tuned)

First off is the SDA 1C Studios I picked up a couple of months ago. I am the second owner of them and purchased them from the original owner. They are completely original with boxes, manual and the Polk umbilical cord. They sound just awesome, there is not a thing wrong with them. Other than some dust on the grills they look practically like new. My space is not big enough and I don't see that changing anytime soon, if ever. $350.00/no shipping.

Second is my B&K Reference 200.2 amplifier. This is not the Series II. Power ratings in 8 ohms/220 watts/channel. Into 4 ohms/325 watts/channel. Damping factor of 450 with 75 amps/current. I am the second owner. The front face is near perfect as is the rest of the amp. On the Audiogon scale I would rate it at 8/10 because I am the second owner. I also have the original box and manual. One of the speaker terminal screws tends to slip out of it's plastic sleeve at times but I never had a problem with it. Tighten your grip on it when **** it down, problem solved. This amp weighs almost 40 pounds without the box. I will ship this amp but remember, it does weigh that much. $400.00 plus shipping.

Pics of the SDA's can be found in the vintage forum. I am not literate enough, computer-wise, to post a link but it's there somewhere. If someone is serious about the amp I will post pics but I won't screw around with taking it out of it's installation until then. This is driving the SDA's currently and is more than enough juice.

If there is no interest in either of these for a week I'll try other avenues.

    Jimmy - I thought about shipping but that would be a pretty penny. It practically scares me to think what might happen to them in shipping.

    Tag teaming, never thought of that. Thanks for offering Tony!

    I will buy your SDA's if they are still available. I can pick-up and have cash in hand ready to go. I'm serious.

    Let me know whats up.

    Thanks.

    These are 1C's. As far as I know the studio versions have the extra panel on the bottom.

    TNT - Thanks for your interest. Leroy has first dibs since he said something first. Maybe he'll let me know today what he wants to do. Don't you have something going on with some 1C's in Chicago?

    TNT - Not a problem, I'll let you know either way.

    Maybe I should have posted pics of the boxes of my gear like Freddy did?!? I'm kind of surprised there is zero interest in the amp myself..., especially for what I have it listed for. Guess it's not a 20 year old Adcom for $150.;)

    Ok, if I get one more vote on the boxes I'll post pics but I'll state the same thing Freddy did. Buy the boxes (same price of course) and the speakers/amp come with them!

    As far as pretending you COULD pretend that it's a nice Conrad Johnson for $400...

    TNT - I'll keep you posted through a PM whatever happens.

    Man, thought someone would want a nice, big, beautiful, powerful Made in the USA amplifier to push some Polks. Oh well..., would like to see it stay with someone here.

    I would buy it but I would have to sell some nice old Yamaha amps first.

    It's very tempting...

    The 1C's are now sold to TNT (how are we supposed to mark the header sold anyway?). The Reference 200.2 is off the block.

    Tim is a nice guy to do business with!

    That's right!

    Isn't there a pair of CRS/+ in the mix too if I remember correctly? Oh well, nice to have plenty of extremely cared for pairs of SDA's ;)

    Are you sure those are 1C's, 1C's don't have the kick panel. maybe they are 1A's

    They are definitely not 1A's......could be 1B's. 1A's had side by side tweets. Either way if they are 1B's or 1C's they look to be in great cond. and a pretty avg. price. Not a smoking deal, but certainly not way too high either.
