  • What about these SDA SRS 2.3s?

    Is the price right? I might go pick them up today. Does anyone know if they are from a Polkie here on the forum?

    Well I hope this helps....

    I just bought a pair about a month ago. Guy was originally asking $1,200 and were on offer up for months. I offered $600 and he took it. I not only got the 2.3's I also got a Mirage BPS-400 powered subwoofer and some nice Audioquest cables. The original cross over cable and even the rare SDA AI-1 amplifier interface. So $900 sounds a little high to me. If you do get them though they are very sweet speakers!!! It's funny I auditioned mine in his garage with the speakers only about two feet from each other with each side on the wrong side (so definitely not optimal) but still the stereo separation and clarity!!! Wow! Played Dire Straits Ride Across the River and it sent chills up my back literally. If I were you I'd see what you can do negotiation wise. Also I am warning you now if you are able to properly audition them you will be hooked. Good luck!

    I reached out to him last week. He would not even give me pictures of the tops or the serial numbers. He claimed they were boxed up and he could not get pictures. Sounds kind of shady to me.

    @OldSchoolPolk, Hey I just read the ad. I didn't realize they did the RD0194-1tweeter upgrades!! Just FYI: the tweeters are about $50 each so that would be about a $300 upgrade just in itself. So $900 may not be all that bad..... :wink:

    These have me drooling. The cleanest I've seen.

    Couldn't help but email him hoping to trade some audio gear for those. Instead he's looking for outdoorsy type stuff - so if you or anyone has some spare camping / hunting / nature stuff, this may be your lucky day!

  • Pair of SDA1 for $100 locally, this sound reasonable?
  • I plan to get a pair of SDA1 speakers, they are rated 4Ohms, but with sensitivity of 94dB. 5year old Onkyo theater receiver work?? (100W/ch)
  • ^^@ 4ohm not very long.

    They drop way below 4ohm.

    They might be worth $200 in parts, but that's about it. I wouldn't have those on display in my livingroom...

  • ^^ If the seller thinks they are 'outdoor speakers' who knows what he did with them... :o
  • Looks like a pair of monitor 7 maybe 10s in the ad. No pics with the grill off but 40 bucks for the whole deal looks like it could workout great for someone in the DC area.

    What's odd about that listing in Potomac is it's an extremely upscale part of town and that gear is extremely down scale.
