The guy threw out 600 but that sounds steep. How much would you pay?

    Copy that. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would these stack up sound wise against all the other vintage SDAs ever produced? The guy has the original cable BTW.

    You'll need the extra $200 frozen C-notes for RDO's
    or Wuhan them and put the duckets elsewhere.

    Not to mention some of the hardest drivers to get. MW6509. These drivers were only used in 2 models, SDA 1b and those Blade/blade SDA SRS 2.
    They will be expensive to recap as well.

    If they were Pin Blade maybe, but Blade Blade, I personally would pass at that price tag..

    Check all the drivers for coil interference and it looks like one of the binding posts is damaged. They'd probably sound very good restored.
    Gustard X26 Pro DAC
    Belles 21A Pre Upgraded with Mundorf Supremes
    B&K M200 Sonata monoblocks refreshed and upgraded
    Polk SDA 1C's modded / 1000Va Dreadnaught
    Wireworld Silver Eclipse IC's and speaker cables
    Harman Kardon T65C w/Grado Gold. (Don't laugh. It sounds great!)

    Yes they will! ;)
    I spent around $400 and that's using Jantzens to replace the electrolytics.
