Is SA 6.5 Component Speaker discontinued?


Recommended Posts

Obviously not everyone agrees on what they like -- that being said we sold 1,000 sets of the SA-6.5 CS and 95% or more of people absolutely love them. They do have a smooth sound to them so if you like a sharp sound (think MB Quart, Focal, etc) you may not like them.

That being said -- the SA-6.5CS v.2 is in production and due in June. Significantly beefier / lower distortion mid (bigger motor, bigger & longer coil, added shorting ring, etc) & improved tweeter. Crossover is a full 24dB slope unit; very nice.

We are also making an SD-6.5CS set which is essentially the original SA-6.5CS set w/ a stamped frame on the mid & improved crossover. Cost is the same as the original SA-6.5CS set & it is also due in June.

As far as materials used -- we use the same cone material as some much more expensive products on both the SD & SA components (and SA coaxials that are also coming in June).

Motors are FEA optimized & tweeters tweaked to my liking.

To follow up a bit... out of the 1,000 sets sold I have actually heard from maybe 2-3 people that weren't happy. And one of them is in this thread *laughs*

That being said -- I don't expect every person on the planet to always like what I like =)

Thanks for the information! I wasn't aware they're about to come out around summer time. Definitely looking forward to it in the future.
