I know both of these has been answered before but humor me. I love my SRS SDA 2.3tl's but am interested in changing the tweeters and modding the crossover. On the Polk Club parts list, the replacement tweeter for the SL3000 is listed as RD 0105-C but I have seen RD 0198-1 in threads. What's the deal? Also if someone would give me a list of the parts I will need to mod the crossover, I would appreciate it.

    Wecome to the forums.

    Have you tried the search feature yet? It's a great place to start before others chime in.

    My brother hasn't touched his 2.3tls yet and I've reworked my 2.3s but both the tweets and crossovers are different so I don't have a list for you. It might be in here though.

    Thank you for the warm welcome. The reason I posted was because I could not find anything specific about my 2.3tl's except for the one mention of the RD 0198-1 which was not listed in the Club Polk replacement list. I have seen stuff about crossover modafication but only paid it minimal attention. I know someone will know something about both.

    You want the RD0198-1 tweeters. What info do you need about the crossovers?

    I have a schematic coming from Ken @ polk, but if anyone has a list of parts for the 1c x-over, I would appreciate it, not to re-invent the wheel or anything :) If not, I will post after completion

    Sorry to be so slow getting back to you. I have one of those jobs that keep me away from the house for extended periods of time, and sometimes when I get home the computer is the last thing I think about. I see someone posted the parts list and I thank you. In responce to F1nut , any info that can make my speakers sound better will be appreciated. I'm always looking for better sound. I figure theres always room for improvement.
