For Pick-up only. I'm regrettably selling these bad a-- speakers. They are the dark brown cabinets in great condition and the grills are very good condition. Comes with b/b interconnect cable. Asking $175

    Wow, I didn't know that these could be TL'd. Do you have 2A's?

    Post #3 contains the schematics you'll want to refer to where you can confirm the high pass sections of SDA 2A and 2B crossovers are identical.

    A 5.8uf cap over the initial 2.7ohm resistor is all that is needed (same mod as shown in the SRS SL3000 mod schematic found in post #4).

    You can then use the CP Search function to find literally dozens of threads about folks here that have "TL'd" SDA 2A's and SDA 2B's.

    +1, i-sports is right!

    But still, that's a marvelous price for 2As...I run 2Bs and have no space that can handle the larger SDAs. The sound they put out in a small to medium sized room is...well...let's just say that they PUT THE ROOM IN ITS PLACE!

    Thanks Greg

    Good luck with the sale!

    You've set a very fair price on a speaker that sounds great as-is, and can be upgraded economically to compete with speakers costing more 12 or 15 times what you're asking. I predict they won't be around for long. :)
