Disconnected my SDA tweeters

Well, I went ahead and disconnected the SDA tweeters on my SDA2's. Felt like trying it out last night after I had sat down and listened to a few tracks... I was feeling more annoyed than usual by the SL2000's, so I figured, what better time to silence two of them 
The difference is good, IMO. The high end is much less confused now. I hadn't really taken notice of it until the confusion was gone. I think they're going to stay that way.

Ludicrous gibs!

Change the values of the resistors on the stereo tweeters to bring the levels up to match the mids. I did the same on my original 2's and found it pleasing:)Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks

Yeah, I haven't changed the resistors. Honestly, it allowed me to drop my Preamp back to neutral tuning. I was running the bass a little heavy to counteract the tweeters. Now, it seems to be pretty nice. I might end up changing that resister, though. Any idea what effect this has on the average resistance of the speakers?Ludicrous gibs!

Why don't you drop in some RDO 194's. It was a great improvement on my SDA 2B's.Polk HT system 1: LSIC, LSI25 mains, LSI F/X rears, Lsi F/X rear centers,

Drop the main resistor by about 1 to 1.5 ohms and you will be good:)Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com.
