These speakers amaze me! I am still humping them by moving them all over the place for best image! But man even with this little amp, these things rock!
I was wondering though, Do these have a break in period? Cause they seem to sound sweeter everyday! These sl2500 are a little harsh, but they are toning down a bit!
Wanted to say thanks for all the advice! A lot of good people on here!

what vintage Polk Audio speakers did you get?PolkFest 2012, who's going>?
Vancouver, Canada Sept 30th, 2012 - Madonna concert :cheesygrin: -
Are you speaking of the new tweets you got from Polk (refering to your other thread). Because if they sold you new sl2500's, those are the wrong tweets. I was going to order the RDO's a while back and I made the mistake of not specifically mentioning the model # and he (not Ken) told me the sl2500 were the current replacement for the sl2000's. I then asked him for the RDO's by model #. They were out of stock at that time (about a year ago) and I ended up selling by RTA's before the upgrade.

I still have the orginals in (sl2500) haven't had the funds to buy the new ones yet. So the i need to order by p/n RDO's? if i do decide to buy them?
I think it takes time for your ears to get use to these? At first i was in love, then it changed to too much harshness and now they seem to be calming down, So i might just keep the original sl2500's... -
I'm confused . These are used speakers (correct) so I was just wondering why you are asking if the tweets will break in. They should be well broken in unless they are spanking new which I gather from your responses they are not. Your original post made it sound like you just bought them (the tweets) because you were asking about a break in period."Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience.

Sorry for the confussion... these speakers are used, but the guy who had them before me never really used them... More of a conversation piece... Now that i have them i am driving them pretty hard and or my ears are just getting use to a GOOD set of speakers -
Got it Enjoy the music, enjoy the speaks :cool:"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience.
