I want/need some CRS stands, along with several others I have read. One of you metal working men should get a group buy going for CRS stands, clones of the originals. I would buy a set.
I am a woodworker, cabinets and furniture usually. I considered making my own from wood, but it would have to be designed differently. I think steel is the way to go here, or maybe wood with steel skeleton on the inside.
Get a list going, and I will see if it's worth doing. The more I can build at one time will help with cost, but shipping will cost so keep that in mind...
I sold them to this guy in Centennial.
In fact, I sold him 3 pairs of SDA's.
Good thing is finally they'll get some upgrade since they are in your hands.

@Mystery I still use the Monitor 4's you sold me daily. I even put Larry's rings and Dynamat in them as well as sealed the cabinets with Powergrab Thanks again!
I emailed him asking If he would ship those M5s and he said sorry, so I'm out. However they are a good deal for someone with a shorter drive than me.

Beautiful SDAs Steve, enjoy! Let us know how you like them compared to 1Cs.
Thanks! The biggest sound difference to me, not ever hearing anything TL, is the tweeters are way smoother than the 1c's. Don't know which ones the 3.1's have now, but look forward to the 198's down the road. Also a lot of very low bass. I may have to dynamat my whole rack.

Steve, Glad you were able to pick these up, you are in for a treat! Congrats!
Appreciate your insight on these guys, I was a little hesitant to make the drive.

Comments
I drove 2 for mine.
If you are going to look a possibly buy take a friend because they are heavy....... GL! I love mine!
Bedroom system: Carver CT-24, Parasound HCA-800II, Monitor 10's
Additional projects: RTA 12c's
those are either SDA1b or studio 1C's
Thanks again Larry! I'm super excited to pick those bad boys up tomorrow!
Good stuff, I don't guess you know where you can pick up a set of Larry's Rings do ya? A must for all SDA Models!
I have a pair of the same CRS+'s that have been "kicked up a notch" you're in for a treat, N'joy!
I am a woodworker, cabinets and furniture usually. I considered making my own from wood, but it would have to be designed differently. I think steel is the way to go here, or maybe wood with steel skeleton on the inside.
Of course.
They are (I mean were) my pair.
Here's my thread when I got them.
