Nice find! I'm still using that center in my HT

Do we have anyone in that area that might go get it for me and ship it? I've been looking for one for a while. They don't come up in South Carolina it seems.HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

@BlueBirdMusic Harry might be since he posted it.

@xjghost! I would be glad to get and ship to you for the $40 plus actual shipping cost.
I have the boxes and packing stuff already available so no extra expense there.
Send me a private message with your info.
It really looks nice. I purchased one of these about 10 years ago in original box and paid more, and mine does not look as nice as the one in picture.

Crossovers from SDA 3.1TLs, upgraded with Clarity Caps, apparently by someone who's visited the forum at some point.
Described as pulls from working speakers that were cosmetically no longer acceptable - ouch for WAF?
I'd buy them and then I'd only be missing the speakers to go with...

EDIT TO ADD: Also a bunch of MW6509s showed up recently...if anyone's looking.
Too many folks parting out their SDAs.Current polk speakers:
Family room 5.1: TC265i R/L, VM10 Center, RC65i surrounds (couldn't match the TCs)
Basement non-dedicated 7.1 HT: SDA-CRS+ R/L, 255c-LS Center, LSiFX surrounds, RC80i in-ceiling rear surround, plus Wharfedale 12" sub (some day I'll get around to building 15" F-20 sub). -
No affiliation - SDA CRS - pin-blade with original stands and boxes in KY. For $350

Those are my 3.1 tl crossovers described above. I was pretty active on the site for several years but then got frustrated when Polk made the switch to a new platform (I know, it’s been a while). Just found out I was able to get back on and I think I can keep all my history. Cool! FYI, the crossovers work great.

Even rarer would be the one from 1973 with the Piezoelectric Tweeter and no crossover. I wonder how many they sold, if any? We need Matthew Polk to write his book!George / NJ

This doesn’t necessarily belong here but it sort of does. A while ago a CS350LS showed up for sale in Omaha for $35. @aprazer402 agreed to check it out for me and get it if it was good. He got it and sent me pictures. Unfortunately he had some stuff to deal with and could not ship right away. I offered to send him some money but he said wait till I can ship. Well life hit me too and I let it slide. Another one was posted recently and I remembered I had an unfinished deal. I reached back out to @aprazer402 to see if he could get it shipped. Well it arrived today.
Can’t wait to hook it up. Thanks for the great packaging job. He double boxed it and even put bubble wrap around the inner box. Oh yea thanks @aprazer402 !HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

Great center at an awesome price. I paid more than that for a replacement driver for one of mine. -
