I'm not a big online poster/opinion giver. I figure I know just enough to be dangerous about most things I know anything about. That's a tough question on which SDAs I liked best, because they were...
Thanks! I have to say this is definitely not my first foray into the world of SDA. My first pair was back in the Army days with a pair of SDA 2's. I upgraded those with a pair of 2.3 TL's. Over...
Well, I'm up to 3 pairs of Polk speakers now. A pair of Monitor 10's, Monitor 7's, and as of yesterday a pair of SDA SRS 2.3's (with donuts and everything!). They'll need a little reconditioning,...
This one's about to expire, but thought I'd throw it out here anyway. He originally had them at $1800. $1500 is probably fair, $1 - $2k would be a deal.
...
No upgrade planned for now. I have a home theater setup with B & W and NAD, so that will just have to do for now.
If you're interested I have a VTL 5.5 with phono stage I'm letting go at $2200 obo. I've got it paired with a Nakamich PA5 and 1.2TL's (all up for sale). PM me if you'd like more info.
This worked for me.
Thanks for all the input. I confirmed the M65 is common ground so will do the comparison this weekend.
Just wanted to get some expert opinion on some amp/speaker setups. Currently I have my 1.2TL's running off a Nakamichi PA5 amp and VTL 5.5 preamp. Very nice, smooth, warm sound with good bass...
I'm thinking of going with the Acoustic Research DAC 7 after listening to one at Definitive Audio in Bellevue, WA. I was very impressed with the unit and wondering if anyone has purchased this one...
Thanks for the tip on going tube. I bought a used VTL 5.5 with phono stage and I'm in SDA heaven.
I've found a deal on a VTL TL-5.5 with phono stage and will be hooking it up to a Nakamichi PA-5 II running a pair of 1.2TL's. I'll post the results here in a week or two.
Just pulled one of the tweeters to confirm. It is the SL3000, manufactured Feb 1989.
A couple of pics.
Thanks for the tips. No wife = no worries about what I spend money on. If she were still around I'd just remind her that size matters. I'm not familiar with the GTP-500 pre-amp. Some years ago I...
Got the speakers, pre-amp and amp hooked up this morning and everything's working great. After spending countless dollars on newer equipment, I have to say my ears have never been more satisfied...
It's hard to find the vintage Polk stuff here in the Boise area, but I'm happy to say I've just bought a pair of 1.2's from the original owner and didn't have to head out of town to get them. ...
You could check to see if one of these sets is available. He's got 2 pairs listed.

Thanks Shadow. I downloaded the manual from the SDA site. I appreciate it.
I was wondering who bought them. I was in Mount Vernon on Monday and called Rex, but he said he had them sold. Just got back today. I guess I should have checked this posting this morning before I...
Does anyone have a good source for information on the 2.3 speakers? I see a lot of information for the 2.3TL, the SDA 2, and the SDA SRS, but there doesn't seem to be much about the short production...
Ethancf - You can buy the 2.3's I bought and I'll go up to Mount Vernon and buy the SRT's! I'm flying up there on business this Monday and have family in Mt. Vernon. What do you say?
Do you know if that's something that's repairable, or is it new driver time? My silicone, soldering, and JB Weld skills only go so far.
