Worth experimenting on.
What MWs did they come with?
MW6600 or MW6501
Mine was the SDA1 signature and they came with MW6600 in all spots except the dimensional spot, it was MW6501. Later models came with all MW6501. I'm fairly sure the MW6501 and MW6600 were identical in specs. I ran one speaker with all MW6600 and the other with MW6501, I could tell zero difference.
Boy, Edwin from Polk Customer service sure fouled up the response. He gave info on the SDA1b, which they are NOT! Polk CS sure has fallen way down the mountain. -

I must admit, the electric socket for the interconnect is genius

Ive looked for that model before just to make a tweeter plate to go center of all the mids and have a listen.Don't take experimental gene therapies from known eugenicists.

The original SDA1 with ports also had boxes inside the cabinet built around the top drivers. There was papers in the vintage speaker section that walked you through the removal of the boxes and plugging the ports to turn the SDA1 into the SDA1a. Your best bet to do what you would like is to look for the SDA1a. There would be a ton less work involved and a LOT less glue to scrap out. My .02 -
Good info.
Id just sawhole the center and drop in a round bezel using the stereo tweeter circuit.

That's the uber-rare pin-blade-blade model.

The early first SDA 1's had a plug type interconnect socket. The middle area showing fuses are only placeholders for extra fuses. The fuses in service in-line are held in place under the black caps screws. The owner may have decided the use the receptacle as the original interconnect pins may have broken off. It could possibly work. Let me know if I'm wrong. -

May have been done by a tasteless University of Alabama football fan.
I once had a residential client with strange textured, dark red paint on her den walls. When I asked, she said it was called "Elephant Blood." She was a rabid Bama fan.

These are in my "neck o the woods". By the way @BlueBirdMusic. I have had no trouble at all with the belts you sent me! In fact, one of the T.T. I bought for now resides in Costa Rica with that goat you see in the picture above. Sent it as a gift to a great friend there and that is his goat! Thought about going to get those but I really do not need another set!!
