SDA 1C pair asking $450. No IC. No affiliation.
Seller writes like a grouch but seemed nice in person when I bought from him a couple of years ago.

There's a limit? Now you tell me.
Yeah, your sig shows you may be a pair or 12 ahead of me. I've got a smallish house, currently have 2 pairs of CRS variants, a pair of modded RTA11TL, a pair of 5jr+ , plus a wife with a cold, cold stare....Jay

Bet they have peerless tweeters and cardboard surround gaskets as there is no binding post cup. Would those be mw6500 drivers?

Ad for the old 10's is still up, but the speakers are gone--I caved and texted him. Probably for the best that they were sold already.Jay

I hear you. It was undeniably a good deal. But here I sit with a) no place to use them in a system, and b) no room to store them.
So if I got 'em, it would be to put my ears on them, play with them for a short while, and then either pass them on to a friend or to a fellow local Polkie (I'm looking at you Dan). So in this particular case, I'm ok with missing out. But "snooze/lose" is a definite truism for bargains on CL!!Jay

If you're truly interested I can coordinate shipping for you. These are one of a kind.
One of a kind is right! LOL Thanks, but I'll have to decline. I don't think they would match my living room decor. A little too upscale for my tastes.
