I should buy these Polks, Shouldn't I?

I would consider it. Those 8" units are passive radiators. Not subwoofers. I seem to remember that the "silver coil" tweeters were not the best version out there. Check the forums over at the Polk site for more info.

They look too small to me...

Bet they sound pretty good though...

Offer $150 and go home smiling. A speaker that goes way under the radar. I use 4 of them for my HT and SACD system.

I just noticed the same pics in an e-bay auction.:scratch2:

Oh well.

Lots of people don't have digital cameras. And CL is usually pick-up, so doubtful it's a scam.

I'd look for some Polk SDAs for that much.

How about some RTA-12Bs?

You might want to go take a listen to get and idea of how Polks sound like.

Carl,

I read you have a pair of SDA's. Did you aquire those recently? There was a pair not long ago on CL. Was very tempted but quite happy with my Monitor 10's at the current moment.

SDAs usually start about twice that much. And I think the RTA is generally a better speaker for music.

I had a pair of them about 15 years ago. I keep kicking myself in the ass for selling them. I just had too many speakers at that time. :yes:

Hi Sau,

I've had my SDA-2s for about two years now. I also had the Monitor 10s, I liked them very much. But I sold the M10s for the space. Both sound very similar, except the SDA-2s is a bit fuller and broader in soundstage. I was thinking about selling them. I've gone to smaller speakers and they have since been neglected. I use to really like them...gonna have to take them for a spin.

Cheers,
Carl

I have SDA SRS2's, SDA 1C's and Monitor 10B's and love them all. The SRS2's get the main amount of workout in my office 2-channel system but the 1C's are going to show up in another room once in awhile too. I'm like most...too many speakers and I don't really rotate them a lot. I just hate selling off some of them!
