SDA2 Issue

in Vintage Speakers
Just bought a pair of SDA2 speakers and I can’t hear any sound from the rightmost tweeter (right speaker) and I believe the tweeters in these are part of the “dimensional” effect and so my question is,,are BOTH tweeters in each speaker supposed to be active? Is there an easy way to test this tweeter when it’s in the speaker or do I have to remove it from the cabinet to test it?

Thanks

    So,,upon further investigation I am noticing that there is much less sound coming from both “outside” tweeters on both left and right speakers. I can feel the cones vibrating on the inner tweeters but no vibrations on both outer tweeters when I touch them gingerly.
    Is this normal that one tweeter would be driven with SDA cable attached. Or driven with more power?

    Thanks

    SDA drivers/tweeters play at half the volume of the stereo drivers/tweeters.

    As mentioned, most disconnect the SDA tweeters due to the phasey effect they impart.
