I have a pair of SRS 2.3TL's in excellent condition with the Mono block and standard connectors and manual. I am the original owner and would prefer to deal w/ someone within driving distance of DC/Baltimore area.

What is the current value and is anyone interested?

Also have Adcom GFA 565 mono blocks and GFP 565 preamp. All in mint condition.

Thank you
Bill Parks

    For the 2.3TL's I would say the fair selling should be at least
    $1200 to 1800.

    2.3TL's much like the 1.2TL's they are almost the same not much
    difference,
    so that bracket will be a fair price fo the 2.3TL's.

    Hi Bill,
    Are your 2.3TL speakers still available? If so, would you mind e-mailing me at Gdamewood@hotmail.com with any of the details? I live in Charleston, South Carolina.


    Sincerely,
    Aero

    Bill,

    I don't have a great deal of ebay data on this model.

    I've seen 2 pair sell at $1200 and ~$900... Neither were mint, but neither listed serious shortcomings.

    A couple other pair never got high enough to meet the reserve price...
    More later,

    I just bought my SDA SRS 2.3tl's for $995.00 on E-bay. I live in Ohio and had to drive to Canada, but it was a great trip. The speakers are absolute MINT. Original boxes, cables, spikes, wall brace, manuals, flyers, and all kinds of past review literature....everything....don't think I could have gotten a better deal. They sound beautiful....they replaced my 9 Kappas....I might try for a pair of 1.2tl's if I can find them...but until then, I'm lovin it.

    Congrats!

    Did you get the AI-1 interconnect cable as well? Do not hook the SDA's up to a non-common ground amp or mono blocks without one. I prefer the bass braces to the spikes and don't throw the boxes away.

    Huh? Mono blocks are not a brand name, so what brand are you talking about?

    I am driving the 2.3tl's with an Audio Research D200 amplifier with MIT Terminator 2 cables. So far everything sounds great.
