g'day folks,

Just been enjoying reading your comments regarding the SDAs...I'm with a lot of you guys in wishing they were still in production. I heard the SDA1 in a store here in Melbourne back in 1989, driven by a 50watt Forte power amp and CAL cd player. It's still the best sound I've ever heard....and yeah I know people tell me you cant remember sound that accurately, but I choose to hold on the belief...;)

Reason I'm writing is I hope you can help with a quick query... I've discovered a pair of SDA1s on eBay, but I don't know much about the SDA1 lineage. Please pardon what are possibly dumb question to you guys, but how many versions of the SDA1 came out? Is it possible to differentiate between versions because they had varying driver configurations from one incarnation to the next? And is there one particular version that is really sought after?

I'd be much obliged for any info you can give me..

ciao
Cam (newbie)

Do searches on "SDA history", "SDA hierarchy", and "SDA generations". you should see some thread titles that will be useful to you.

The drivers used with each version of the SDA 1 can be found here:SDA Series Parts List (http://clubpolk.polkaudio.com/service/models/modelpartslist.php3?model=sda) .
