    No affiliation here, but these seem like a really nice deal. Would take a few bucks to fix up but nothing crazy.

    If they were SDA 2s, I'd say they were mine and someone nicked them, but...

    Anywho, price needs to drop.

    There is a set of Original (and I believe low serial number, but didn’t have time to investigate further) SDA 1’s at “Father and Sons” antiques in Raleigh, North Carolina for $400. Looked to be in excellent shape with the exception of the base on the right speaker, which was a bit knackered.

    Remove one of the tweeters and if the negative, white wire quick connect is larger than the positive quick connect, the tweeters are RD-0198's and they are TL's. Same size means the tweeters are RD-0194's and they're 1.2's.

    Only one way to find out.
    I wonder if that speakon connection is air tight?

    I forgot to make sure MINE were air-tight. Thanks for the reminder.

    Some are not air tight John. They are not made that way. If you bought those we recommend they are unless you have a loose screw

    Lol! Ivan I'm assuming you're referring to the Speakon connector, correct? :smile:

    Hold on, hold on. Yes, it is a shame, but accidents happen. I had a pair of Bostons come down to the floor once, but luckily, they survived another day. I also dropped a receiver. Both I regret, although luckily neither was a (big) loss. But does that mean that I should not be allowed to own nice things?

    For all we know, his dog tried to take a nap between the speaker and the wall which pushed it over.

    This post came out harsher than intended, and I do apologize for that. I don't want this to turn into an argument, but I want to defend anyone who has had an accident such as this before, myself included.

    What's up with those foam looking things? I thought only the original 2.3's used donuts on the midwoofers and even those are donuts that only cover the cone area not the dust cap and everything. Even the drivers on the left side of the picture look suspect to me. Also looks like the vinyl? on the baffle at the bottom is peeling. The PR are starting to bubble. Those have definitely had a rough life. Possible water damage at the bottom?
