    Angry Now that is interesting....found on eBay

    Just saw these on eBay...thought it, might be a chance for someone to get some RTA-11tl's cheap...then I saw THEY HAVE Peerless tweeters WTF (all-be-it, they are Danish ones or MidWestern's versions)

    Yeah and they are not aligned properly and looks like there is a little gap at the top of the each tweeter. Yikes.

    Yet another AZ set of Polks. They must spawn in some river in AZ.

    Previous tweeter mounting holes in the MDF are probably stripped out. Pretty easy to fix, but apparantly whoever owned these wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

    The Peerless tweeters are a bonus. Don't complain ;) I bet they sound nice if sealed properly.

    I know those AZ boyz have all the Polk they can handle, but Jeeze, If I was down there, I would definitely pick them up. Right now the $$ is $25, without shipping of course. Pick up some Sl3000 like Polkmaster just had listed for $40 and they are set.

    Not if the crossovers weren't modified to accommodate them.

    Joe, Who asked you?? :D

    I bet an old guy like you could not tell the difference between Peerless tweeters and SL-2000's with resistors hanging off them. LMFAO

    Those are well worth "fooling with" if they go cheap, IMO.:)

    I agree. Drop in some RDO-198s and keep a nice set of Peerless for spares.
