Hi everone.

There are a pair of SDA 1A for sale in the ebay site for Mexico. They are on sale for approximately 600 USD including shipping. Assuming they´re in good condition, do you think this offer is worth? this is the link, in spanish http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.mx/MLM-35313507-bafles-polk-audiomejor-que-infinity-jbl-bose-onkyo-infinity-_JM

What amplifier would ou recommend for these??

Many thanks

    $600 usd is way too high for 1A's. I paid $625 usd for fully modified 1C's. That included all new drivers including tweeters, mortite, sound deadening on the baskets, crossover mod, new internal wiring, custom cardas IC, new cloth screens, and refinished end caps in African Padouk.

    A good price would be $200 to $300 usd. A solid state amp with lots of power (200 wpc or more) or a very good tube amp (less wpc required if tube).
