Hi guys, Looking to loose the poly switches on my sda 1c's. I have read the threads and everyone seems to be using these:

I live in Canada, and I would order from this side of the border. So I was looking on Solen.ca and found these:

My questions are:
-would this 10 watt resistor work? If so, Would it would as well?
-Does anyone know where I can order these Mills resistors in Canada?


Cheers

    SL-2000 tweeters=0.5 ohm Dale. RDO-194=No resistor, jumper only. Thats what I have done with the SDA speakers I have. I think it boils down to personal preference and if you want to spend the cash and wait or not. Just my 2 cents.

    Oh and BTW, I have used Clarity Cap to great effect in my SDA 2b and SRS 2. No affiliation.
