Ian, what's your opinion of the Polk SDA lineup from the 80s (I wouldn't touch the newer stuff)? You're in "another league" with your vast experience compared to most...go ahead, give it to me straight
. I've got three pairs (1.2s, 2.3s, and 1As) and am thinking about letting the "big boys" go (170 lb towers bi-amped with 1000 watts into each), as I downsize my system. Not even in the same league as the systems you work with, but everyone who's heard my system is "impressed". I find the SDA technology "soundstage" on some recordings to be jaw dropping (at least to my ears)...what say you?
