    Scott, I can't sleep. I feel like I drank 10 cups of coffee. I am sure that when they are "in the house" it will be worse.

    I guess I should get a 2nd mortgage out now ???

    Active drivers, they produce bass from 200hz and lower.

    Congratulations, that was a great price on those. I could swear that when I first looked at that listing, he was asking more for them. I can tell you, if you have never had a chance to listen to a pair of these big boys, you are in for a treat! What ever you do, sell blood or a kidney first, before you contemplate selling these. You will only come to regret it if you do.

    I should know, as I had owned both SDA-SRS's and SRS-1.2TL's when I was in the Army. Of course, I ended up selling all my gear to my buddies when I became a civilian in '92. Fortunately, I have been able to relive those bygone days of my youth by being able to reacquaint myself with the beloved SDA series. It took me 18 years, but I finally got some back in the house, currently SDA-1's and SRS-3.1TL's.

    Regards,
    Mike

    Cool story Tower. Always good to hear the stories behind the speakers. They are in the house as we speak. I have to do some re-arranging but they are sounding sweet.

    Nice first post.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Thanks Sal. Very nice words. The RDO-194's are on the way. I have to wait on the XO's. My checking account keeps yelling at me, I don't think he is very happy with me right now.

    Hey, thanks for the welcome guys. I've lurked here for years, but could not bring myself to register until I was a bona fide Polkie again. I plan on completing mods on both of my pair in the near future.

    Regards,
    Mike
