It's hard to believe that I rescued these speakers from the curb (garbage) during a rain storm over 13 years ago. They still look and sound great even though they had gotten wet! I used to work for a VERY BIG competing home audio company, yet I still love the sound of Polk Audio Speakers!
One of my SL2500's has stopped working and I would love to get it replaced. I am thinking I need to replace the pair of tweeters for best balance of sound. Any cost savings for the pair?

    The proper replacement tweeters are available at Midwest Speaker Repair, model #RD0198. Polk no longer sells them.
