Just to chime in, I am an original owner of a pair of SDA CRS from the mid 80's and I am still happy with them today. I have always used them with a subwoofer, but they work pretty well without one...

Yes. 1985 or 1986 bought my SDA CRS and still use them now, in my bedroom.
Saw Grado HP-1000 for 99 starting bid, but small notes through the auction asking for 600gbp buy it now. Auction said all bids would be canceled - assumed it was seller's way of avoiding evan fees. ...

Lots of CD and LP copies on ebay now - wierd -...
I want, NEED, someone to try that Handel's Messiah I recommended (try ebay) and tell me you agree with me about the mastering being done like it was made for SDA's.
I was referring to my joking (see smiley) post about
"With the SDA CRS he could wire them conventionally and then just stand the speakers on their sides - Voila! Vertically placed tweeters "

I am using mine in the bedroom home-theater. I can run them in stereo only, with yamaha 5 channel receiver, or flip on the Velodyne center and rear 2-way satellites in 5.1 mode. But all I have for...
That's similar to the experience I had with the particular Handel's Messiah recording that I recommended in the Playlist thread - pinpointed soloist positions in the ambience of a huge cathedral.
Trying to figure out the correct info to help others find this.
First, bar code top right corner back of box that holds the 1:36.52 hour:min 2 CD set: (little 0) 28943 04882 (little 8)
Second,...
I will get the info when I am back home, and post it.
This was actually a very good CD in it's day, like it was mastered for evaluating soundstage, you can pinpoint the soloists' positions and yet...
Thanks DarqueKnight,
Don't want to post whore just to bring up my post count to be allowed to PM - I'll spend more time reading first.

I've also found that height placement makes a big difference. After we built a house in 2005, we moved them to the bedroom. My SDA CRS are on a 15 foot wall (8 foot ceiling) and to sound best the...
Handel's Messiah Conducted Hogwood by Academy of Ancient Music - This is what I took into the store in the mid 1980's when I demo'd my SDA CRS at the store and bought them on the spot.
Very hard...
