    Has @DarqueKnight Ray started his measurements and tweaks on the the L800s yet? Thinking there's going to be a double backpack KVA collaboration with @VR3, with rings by @Toolfan66 and cheerleading by @TroyD

    Not unless someone sends me a pair. :) The 50% off members only sale was tempting, but I was able to resist...for now. I'm not sure I could be happy with smaller speakers in my 2 channel rig. I did go smaller in my home theater (original SRSs replaced with LSiM 707s). I have been been very happy with the sound and aesthetics of my all LSiM home theater system. So happy that I have not (yet) had the slightest inclination to hot rod them with crossover upgrades and other tweaks.

    Looking forward to @Toolfan66's in-depth impressions.

    I'm glad I didn't see the announcement about the sale. I am looking to buy speakers (it's my "big" 2023 goal), and I don't think I could have resisted!

    I enjoy reading the various posts throughout the Forum on owners' impressions of the R and L lines. I may just have to join you before long.

    Put the L900 modules in them and they get added height too if using a good receiver or processor.

    I have differential monoblock amps (Pass Labs X600.5) in my main stereo system, so I am out of luck there. The L800s would work with the common ground Adcom GFA-565se amp in my home theater.

    One of the things I would like to hear about on the L800’s is what might be the difference on the sda execution?
    Specifically, how the angled approach of the L800 driver’s sound compared to the original sda design?

    I have no way of listening to the L800’s to make that comparison to my sda’s.

    I would say the original sda is wider but the new one has much more depth

    The L800's sounded like surround sound from 2 speakers to me.

    The truth is it was a discount from a sale price with another discount. B)

    Has Polk ever had a sale like that before? I actually was close to buying 7 speakers from the Legend series during the exact same time frame to replace my POLK LSi series from 20 years ago. Phenomenal sale to those who knew. I wonder if we will ever see a sale like that again?

    Polk has a sale like that from time to time for its forum members.

    This thread is a sticky. Sale ended 12/19. I used a Star Wars reference. Obi-Wan Kenobi: "These aren't the droids you are looking for." while waving hand. So I said, "Unsticky" and waved my hand. My Jedi skills were unsuccessful. The dark side's powers were too great. This thread will remain a sticky until we all form an alliance to thwart such injustice.
