Is there a crossover mod that can be done to allow the SDA1b's to use the SL2500 tweeter?

I have a pair of Monitor 10 (series II) that I love the sound of. I would like to mod my SDA 1b's to use the same tweeter so they will all be voice matched for a home theater setup. I know I could try the RDO tweets, but I really like the SL2500 tweeter. (plus if I modded them to the RDO's, the 1b's would have 194's while the 10's would have 198's. Still not the same)

I have seen a couple of threads about modding a pair of 2b's to use the SL2500. (a 4.1tl upgrade or some such thing) Just wondering if I could similarly mod my 1b's.

If the mod is not possible, what SDA speakers come with the Sl2500?

Thanks,

Michael

    I have not heard of any mods that switch tweeters except the 4.1TL. That's the hard thing that you would have to modify the x-over to impedance and frequency match the new tweeter. I not sure what the impedance on each tweeter is, but if they are the same, you could just plug it in and try it. The worst it might do is not sound right.
