I'm using the 1985 version Polk SDA SRS which has 8 mid/low drivers coupled to a 15" passive radiator and four tweeters per cabinet. I picked them up off of E-bay this spring. I was using a Parasound amp pushing around 220 watts a channel. Sound was good but a little lean. I picked up the Bryston 14 around a month ago and it's spec sheet said it tested at 600w at 8 ohms. The Polks are a 5 OHM load. The speakers really opened up with the extra power. I'm also running a Bag End 18" Infrasub which has blended perfectly in the lower end.
Pre amp is a Sony ES9000. It's part of a home theater set up. I started out with some 1984 vintage Polk SDA 2s. Bought them new in 84 and still have them.Thanks for your recommendation.
