    You need to post some pics of your speakers front and back, it would be very helpful for these guys to help you out with your needs. Maybe even a pic of your crossovers.

    Before we can tell you anything, we need to know which version of the SDA 2's you have. There are 3 versions of them.

    Do they have three mid-woofers, 2 tweeters and one passive radiator? Or do they have two mid-woofers, one tweeter and a passive?

    From there, we can narrow it down to one of two different models. Either the 2A's or 2B's. What connector does it have for the SDA interconnect? Is it blade/blade or pin/blade?

    Also, you might want to pull one of the mid-woofers. If it's an SDA2A, both MW's will be MW6510's, and the SDA IC will be a blade/blade.

    The 2B's will have one MW6503 and one MW6511 in each cabinet. The 2B's had both blade/blade and pin/blade IC's, but I believe most of them were pin/blade.

    Dude spell check is free. Not picking on ya. I used it all the time;) Back to the speakers. The wire that connects the two speakers together will have either a round pin and a blade or a larger blade and a smaller blade.
    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
    Ben

    If it does have a pin/blade, like Ben described, then they're SDA2B's.

    The 2B's can be modified to use the RD0-198's if you're planning on upgrading the XO's.
