Very good condition set of Polk Audio SDA 1.2TL. These have been recapped and contain all new Polk Audio RDO-198 tweeters. All the drivers have been epoxied to prevent magnet shift along with hurricanes nuts to better seal the cabinets. The cabinets have also been resealed. A lot of time and effort went into restoring these speakers. Not shown in the photo is the pin blade SDA interconnect cable. There is a thread around here somewhere documenting the work.

$2000.00 in full disclosure, I do not know what's a reasonable price for these. These were my dream end all be all speakers but because of space I am forced to sell them.

Located in East Central Indiana.

They are in my basement and I am able to help new owner lift them up the stairs.

    I am going to pass, I really want to get another pair of these sometime, but I really don't take the time to listen to what I have now.

    Good luck bored184

    Going into the weekend lets drop the price to $1800. I could be interested in trades for tube amps.

    Ya, I saw that. He didn’t state whether he did it or had it done.

    Needed to know the ‘who’ done it part.

    I sold a pair of these, fully modded about two years ago. It took a while to find someone willing to pick them up and the price was right about where you are at. They will sell, just be patient. GLWTS

    On a serious note yes please with the quote, it would be nice to see the difference to pre covid prices .

    We don't listen at 90 db,70 is the average max .The JLTIoppo with the volume set to maximum 80 directly connected to the amp with the volume on 1 pressurises the room to 45-55 db at 9 feet seated Centre .
    To you wipper snappers out there .look after your hearing....
