If you have ever been over to Amazon there is a thread (Polk Audio) where I got "talked to" about messing up my speakers by updating them. You may find his narrow mindedness (Weldon) quite entertaining. Also read my reply. thanks.

    That guy has no clue as to what he's talking about. He's seen the specs for the new tweeters? That's interesting because there aren't any published.

    Tell him to stop by, it would be my pleasure to straighten him out.

    Yea I think he is just trolling for arguments or he just really thinks everything has to be kept original in order to sound as intended. That's fine, I want them to sound better.

    Well put haha.:biggrin: Why does when someone say "museum" I start hearing "The Adams Family" song in my head.:lol:


    These are not museum pieces. Upgrading components improves the sound, period. I have not heard one person say they like the sound of un-modded SDAs over modded SDAs. That is a lot of ears to prove that mods improve sound. I have personally done it and it makes a huge difference. Maybe you should hear the difference with SDAs and then chime in.
