Quick question about 3.1TL's -- can they fit in a 2005 Camry?

That's what I thought and with a long drive, I don't want to take chances on the size.
I'll have to re-schedule so I can bring bigger vehicle.
BTW, what's a deal price without IC cable?
He's asking $350.
I've to take some speaker cables in case they have modified jack and IC cable from CRS+ to test the SDA drivers.

My 1Bs came home in an '80 Honda Civic.

I hauled a pair of Sony SSU-4000 that are 46.5" high so 1C's should fit fine.
1C --> 11-1/2"D x 16-9/16"W x 44"H
However, 3.1TL are 13-3/8"D x 15-3/4"W x 48"H.
48" high is the concern here.
If I can't close the door, then it's no good.
Plus, there is no hurry. I already have SDA-2B's and CRS+.
I'm trying not to buy more speakers but they show up and I get tempted. :rolleyes:

One thing that concerns me.
Seller mentioned they are in a barn and last week, temp was below 0. Hope that doesn't mess anything up in the drivers/crossovers.

Got them!!! :loneranger: :cool:
All drivers work including tweeters and SDA driver.
One passive has small crease on bottom but not a rip.
Cabinets are black and look very good besides usual scratches, scuffs etc...
I assume they are painted at some point as I didn't see black 3.1TL's in Polksda site.
These do not seem as wide as the 2B's but little deeper.

No IC cable but I took my CRS+ pin/blade and it fits fine.
Now I need to make a custom cable for one of them.
Nothing fancy but at least something that can perform same as IC cable.

My 2B's are not bi-ampable but these are.
Need to check schematics to figure out what drivers are separately powered.

Also, now need to sell either 2B's or RTA-12C to get space back in the room.

I emailed him last week and told him I would give him $200 cash and he accepted but I had to pass as I don't need them.. So I know you can talk him down..

Yes, I knew I could talk him down to around $200 but this guy is doing this for a living and I already had send him an offer of $250 that we agreed upon.
He buys and sells stuffs. His barn was full of stuffs and had a huge poster on the street 'Huge Sale'.
Plus these don't come too often so few bucks up/down not a huge deal.

Still in my car.
2nd and 3rd photos are from the ad.

So now the question, what's different about SRS vs SDA?

I paid more than double what you did and that was a steal for me. Enjoy although they don't look worth double the price paid.
Now mod them and don't look back.
Also, SDA is patented technology that is used in a variety of polk speakers. SRS is a term used for 'Signature Reference Speaker' and was exclusive to only be for the "best" models. These were polks flagship models.

I'm sure, they'll look much better once I wipe the dust and grime out.
I'd like to listen to them as it is for a while as they are already TL's.

All non-SRS have tweeter above the mids and SRS have tweeter in between mids in a vertical array.
Is that a good assumption?

Congratulations. That is a great deal for a great pair of speakers!
I am curious - did they fit in your Camry after all?

If you look at the picture I posted above, it's a SUV.
That was yesterday's question as I drove Camry yesterday and wanted to check them out.
However, after few replies and some dimensional answers (hehe, different SDA here...), I drove Lexus RX today and no problem fitting them with back seat folded.

Thanks.
I never saw those 1.2's but too high for my budget.
BTW, there is a pair of restored/upgraded 2.3TL's in Loveland for $1200.
