I just noticed this on eBay (see link below) and had no idea Polk ever made a SDA AM/FM/cassette car audio system. Has anyone seen one of these before? I wonder what year this was made. Interesting to say the least. Now, if the system included some real SDA speakers, THAT would be quite a car audio system.

    Says amplifier by Polk, unit by Alpine. Regardless, it says Hyundai on it so it’s absolute and worthless junk.

    I know Polk had a separate SDA module (I had one) that could be added to any car audio rig, but I've never seen a unit like that. Very cool.

    Wow I never heard of a factory Polk SDA system. I long thought they should enter the OEM market.

    Not uncommon to have factory car stereo components from different name brand companies. One of my Volvos that had the Premium Sound system had a Mitsubishi head unit, Alpine amp, Harman speakers. Later version of the car upgraded to an ICE amp and DynAudio speakers. I stuck must of this later system in my present Volvo V50.
