    $1200 for SDA 2's? That's madness.
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    I paid $200 for my pair. If I remember correctly, the price of 2B Studios was $1200 brand new in the 1980's. Do you have a photo? Perhaps you've got the model number incorrect.

    They are at the store. Apparently they called Polk and were told that was the value. Maybe they misunderstood the original price.

    It is not my crap. This was listed as a place to post third party sales. Third party means "It ain't mine".

    You're right Larry - I'm a total sucker. Wasn't even thinking along those lines. Next time I remember to check post counts. So long, troll.

    If they are in stock condition with SL2000's, then $300 TOPS, and that's if they are in great condition.

    Another pair in the brew city. I actually went and looked at these and they were very nice, but I decided to hold out in hopes of a later version or 1c popping up.

    FYI: Just spotted a pretty decent pair of SDA-2's on ebay. They look to be in good conditon. The starting price is a $99 (with a buy it now price of $140) for the pair with the interconnect cable too! Looks like they are for pick up around the Phoenix, AZ area. Not a bad buy at all. I would buy them myself cause I live in SoCal but already have a pair. Or could I use them for parts?

    Arizona Guy lives in SoCal but in one of his first two posts identifies a bargain pair of SDAs in Arizona? That's unbelievable. Really.

    You're not fooling anyone.

    A fellow forum member blasting me for my username? Just meant to give the heads up on a deal for some SDA's. I always watch for Polk deals in the southwest areas. Not that I have to explain, but I am originally from Tucson (now in SoCal). Is it really an unbelievable coincidence, or do you wish that you could buy those SDA's and live too far away? You're the one that's not fooling anyone.

    Arizona: we are a bit Leary when it comes to folks with very low post counts listing items for sale they found In CL. As the forum requires 100 post before a member can sell items many people join to post about a deal they saw when in fact they are the seller and just don't want to abide by those rules. Couple that with the fact your username leads one to assume your in Arizona which just happens to be where the deal is.

    If we are wrong out apologies but we protect our forum with ferocity :smile:

    Boy, I guess I picked the wrong username then. Too late now. I just joined this forum because I never knew that it existed. Didn't know that you needed 100 plus posts before people would take you seriously. Anyway, apology accepted. Thank you.:cool:

    Well the example I posted actually just happened 2 or 3 times in the last couple weeks, so you just got screwed by bad timing lol.....

    Its ok when I first started I accidentally tried to sell some R50's on the forum with under 100 posts.... they were "gentle" but my thread disappeared quickly lol..

    It looks like those SDA's on ebay were sold cause the listing ended early. Wish I could have made the drive from Cal to buy them for extra parts in case I ever needed them for my 2A's. Still a new guy to this forum, but very much looking forward to real Polk related discussions without some trying to call me out. I guess in the future I will think twice about providing a tip on what looked to be a good deal on Polk's. So pleased to have found this site and very happy to be here. Thanks! :cheesygrin:[/I]

    Looks like a pretty decent pair of SDA 2b's in Seattle (Mercer Island) for $400 on CL
    IDK about the relative $$ value, but at least they are not beat up. :)
