Just doing some reaserch into upgrading the tweets in my 2A's. Is it the RDO-194's that I need to get and where specifically do I get them from. Also what am I looking at cost wise.


Thanks in advance.

    Yes, those are the correct tweeters. You can buy them directly from Polk by calling their customer service number. They will run you ~$100 for the pair including shipping and sales tax.

    I believe they do but just give them a call, they are very helpful.
    I can't remember if they are open on the weekends however.

    Well I hope the RDO-194 tweet upgrade is worth it as I just ordered them. Because I live in Canada I get to pay $ 150.00 for them.

    The poly dome on a Silver Coil Tweeter in my 2A is seperated from one third of it's previously glued edge.What glue can I repair this with? Or is it time for the above mentioned RDO-194's? How about the customer service number? I appreciate any help Rob

    It's time for a new tweeter or replace the old one off eBay or here.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
