I've search the forums and cannot seem to find directions for the blade over blade style of interconnect cable. I have found the pin/blade directions but not blade/blade. They sell them at Polk but I thought I would try to make one first. This is for the SDA2a. Also does hooking up the cable drop the ohms down. Thanks

    Up until very recently you could buy the blade/blade cable from Polk, however it's no longer available and that's why you won't find any info on how to make one. It's very simple, get a good quality 2 wire cable (heavy duty electric cord is fine), get some spade terminals from RS or Parts Express and attach to the ends. You will probably have to file down the one blade to fit into the socket, put on some shrink tubing and you're done. There is no ohm drop.
