Either crackhead pricing or someone's partaking said crack
What's the difference between a crackhead and a partaker of crack?

A crackhead will take $20 for a pristine set of SDA's, whereas someone smoking crack wants $2000 for an abused set.Don't take experimental gene therapies from known eugenicists.

The crack pipe was passed around the circle but he was not a partaker so he waved it away. He could have partook but declined to partake because if he'd partaken he'd be a crackhead.

Yes!!! The 2 bottom central pair are (appear to be) upper end Sony APM, especially the black pair (port configuration is different between the mid and upper end series).
Why do you ask?
-
I'd be all about the APM AV-930s (black pair). The others are the little brothers to the 690s I have in my avatar.

From what I gather, it's the SRS since that's the items pictured. The description is a stock copy of Polks literature. -

To add further confusion, the positive binding post nuts are on the left but the sticker says they are supposed to be on the right.
The most important thing to find out is what type of interconnect socket it has. If it's pin blade then they are 1.2's and the binding post nuts are in the correct position regardless of what the sticker says because Polk is notorious for using old stock on newer models. If the socket is blade blade than they are first generation srs's and the positive binding post nuts should be swapped over to the right side.
If someone here on the Forum ends up buying them, remove the four screws on The Binding post cup to make sure everything is correct.SDA SRS 2.3TL's

[/quote] I contacted the seller, he states that the interconnect is pin/pin. What?[/quote]
There's no such thing as a pin/pin socket LOL. Ask him if there's a round hole and a rectangular slot or 2 rectangular slots.

Are you referring to photo #4 in the Ebay ad? If so, the cable is plugged in so it's impossible to tell what type of connection it is.SDA SRS 2.3TL's

The layout says 5jr+, but the tweets are wrong, and the offset is very odd. But hell, at $60 for 3 of them, I'd say it's worth the gamble. You could always part them if the boxes are bogus. -

They are talking about a different listing.
Although I would like to be the first to point out that the baggie includes an AI-1 cable. -

That is AI-1 interconnect much better cable than regular p/b interconnect. It add at least 100.00 to the set
There was never anything other than pin/blades in the 2.3 series -
