  • Now I come to find out that the person I purchased them from doesn’t have the interconnect cable for it and need the one with a pin and blade...I called Polk and they don’t carry that anymore... any suggestions

    Can you post a pic of the front of the speakers? Need to see what type of tweeters you have. Since it's a pin/blade interconnect socket, they are at least SDA SRS 1.2's (can be upgraded to the TL) and if they have SL3000 tweeters you have SDA SRS 1.2TL's.
    SDA SRS 1.2TL's
    SDA 1C's w/Clarity Cap ESA; PA, Mills, RD0194-1's
    SDA 2B TL's w/RD0198-1's
    Yaqin MC-30L integrated tube amp
    Yaqin MS-20L integrated tube amp
  • Forgot to address your question... sometimes you can find a used one for sale on Ebay and in this forum. Some people have removed the pin/blade socket and replaced it with a SpeakOn connector.

    You could use a single 12 ga. Speaker wire with banana plugs on each end connected to the IC pins temporarily.
    Gustard X26 Pro DAC
    Belles 21A Pre modded with Mundorf Supreme caps
    B&K M200 Sonata monoblocks refreshed and upgraded
    Polk SDA 1C's modded / 1000Va Dreadnaught
    Wireworld Silver Eclipse IC's and speaker cables
    Harman Kardon T65C w/Grado Gold. (Don't laugh. It sounds great!)

    True, I forgot about that idea. Just trim off the petals that surround the pin on the banana plug.
