    Loving the SL3000 tweeters! The RD0194’s still seemed a bit spikey at times. These are smooth!

    Sounds like a plan! Easy swap too. Thanks Ivan for your guidance on these babies. I’m a happy camper for sure. Lots of upgrade paths, plus now I can finally use my dreadnaught!

    I don't know what the rd0194's sound like, but the rd0198's in my 2A's sound smooth without lacking any detail.

    These are priced very nice. Would be a good entry into full sounding SDA for someone. The small chips
    in the veneer could be repaired, or even touched up and they would hardly be noticed. The 2.3's have pin/blade interface cable connections and can use the Dreadnought isolation transformer.

    Hi guys. I have three pairs of Polk Audio speakers and thinking to sell two of them (Monitor 7c and RTA 12c). Looking for an advice on how to sell, so they will end up in good hands, and for fair market price.
    Is it the right thread to ask?

    Try Craigslist. Do a search on eBay "completed items" for what they are selling for currently.

    Yeah, it’s obvious. But it doesn’t help much, cuz basically eBay prices are exceed common sense and craigslist listings expire in a week. So it doesn’t much with both problems..

    Appreciate your thoughts, definitely helpful to me. Will list by end of the week on ebay and etc.

    I love both M7 and RTA12 but for pretty different rooms. Finally decided to let them go and keep only SDA 2B.
