To RTA11TLs? I know the CS250 is considered close enough but mine took a crap (tweeter went out) and found the 150 on my local c list for $25

****EDIT****

I did some research (not easy) and found that someone on this forum used the CS150 with some monitor 10s which I know do have the SL2000. I figure it will be a close enough fit. For $25 it's worth a shot.

    I might try to find a M5 jr with the same tweet, but if you're really tight on cash the 150 is worth a shot, and can certainly function as a temporary fix...

    Yeah temporary indeed. I thought of a M5jr as a pair is on c list as well for $50 but my entertainment center doesn't have big enough openings for me to lay it horizontally.
