There's something wrong with those. How did he do the work? Are those 2.3 crossovers? IIRC 2.3's are taller than SRS 2. The stickers do say SDA SRS 2 so adding two more woofers ....hmmm
-
Good lord..

I'm pretty sure those are just 2.3's. The photo I'm posting shows the SDA SRS 2's. The ones for sale
don't look like they are altered SDA SRS 2's. The ones for sale are P/B. The SRS SDA 2's did come in both P/B and B/B. They're missing jumper cables on the binding posts. I have the 2.3's (non TL's) I'll have to look at my model labels, they may just say SDA SRS 2 also.

No Affil.
First time I've seen the fairly rare LF-14 bass module in my area.
With older 5 Jr's with fuses and SL-1000 tweeter.
For only $500.00.
Me thinks I'll pass at this price. Would like the LF-14's for my collection though.

That is a killer sub. Will go very low. Even for HT use. Very hard to find. Someone please jump on that. -

Sure looks like a bastardized SRS2 to me (I have those) ... those added mid woofers look awfully strange, and a third SL2000 under the two where they are normally.aprazer402 wrote: »I'm pretty sure those are just 2.3's. The photo I'm posting shows the SDA SRS 2's. The ones for sale

They’re 1st Gen 2.3’s

I did find that in Gimpod’s ID compilation ... indeed proper designation is SDA SRS 2.3 (w/ 3@SL2000’s ... the TL uses 3@SL3000) and those two add’l drivers are MW6513 ‘sub-bass drivers’ ... learn something new everyday ... I’m good for the rest of the day now 😁

Nice group BUT more than likely Polk will not have parts for them.
