You should also replace the sandcast resistors with Mills. They are also available from soniccraft. I assume you have the SL2000 tweeters and a polyswitch. The polyswitch should be replaced with a 0.5 Ohm resistor. There is a much better and smoother sounding tweeter that is a direct replacement, the RD0-194. It can be ordered from Polk customer service for ~$50 each. Tell them you are a forum member and shipping is free.

There is also the SL3000 mod which requires more parts and uses the RD0-198 tweeter, a replacement for the SL3000. A link to the schematic is below. All the schematics can be found in the vintage speaker section.

Some feel the RD0-198 sounds even better than the RD0-194. Both sound better than the SL2000.

I have the 194's and 4 new drivers.
I have also African mahogany veneer that I'll be applying.
I'm about 50% through the restoration.
They go on the operating table tomorrow..
