I'm pretty sure my supply source is adequate.
I do have the original interconnect mine is 1 blade and 1 pin. You are for sure correct as to the difference with and without. The sound stage is a entirely different with hooked up compaired to not. I have several pairs of unique speakers and I enjoy them all. I have been researching the Sda -2 which these are. I originally thought they were early versions
But discovered that was not the case. They are keepers for sure. I have discovered that there are some definite do's and dont's in respect to mods. I will plan to do the polk guided mods to ensure the original engineering is used as these simply would be real easy to be a bit off and risk a severe melt down. I do enjoy them as they are but I realize that they have alot more potential than they are able to do with what I am assuming are a tired crossover. I also have read that there are a few different tweeters that can be used and will try to stay with current wave. I think they got them pretty much right from the get go and upgrade will be better components in crossover there is something to be said about progress. I have several irons in the fire at this moment so they are third or forth down my todo list. I took several years off from a hobby I had forgotten how fulfilling it is. My wife calls it something else but I think she has settled in with the fact I am what I am. It is pretty cool to discover a speaker that I had no idea even existed. I still have 2 pair of Klipsch that are in use pretty much every day but I have downsized as its getting tougher to move the big stuff. I went from corners I bought in 77 to a pair of klf30s then my daughter moved home for a short time ( not so short) with a 1 year old so in order to keep curiosity from damage I moved thoae into the master. I know a bit of overkill to say the least. I sold them and did well on the turn but about 2 days later I was fiending for my klipsch so I picked up a set of kg-4s ok but not doing it for me picked up a set of km-4 ok but still not so they went to new homes and I found a minty set of cherry cf-2s and thats where I have held for some time now .I have always loved a horn and have a few in that configuration. I then had a set of walsh ohms come to me in a barter deal. I really had no expectations in respect to these funny little R2-D2 things. Well I was in for a big surprise they are some of the most accurate speakers I have ever heard and on top of that in my main listening room it does not matter where you are it sounds as if you are at the point the sweet spot reference for almost all speakers ever built. Again definitely keepers. They say its tough to teach an old do new tricks but when I can stand in a line on the out side of either speaker and still have perfect 2 channel definition I admit its a different age of design than I was accustomed to. I still have plenty of old school rockers but I now have some new design (to me at least ) that simply get better every time I listen. I have found quite a following after the Polks but not a whole lot on the ohms. I highly recommend if you have a chance do take the time to audition them. Thanks again for the info and be sure I will be all over it. Have a great weekend! Jason
