    RTA 11T or RTA 11TL's... the only diff is the tweeter used (SL2000 v SL3000) and crossover.

    The 11T's can be made TL's when modded fairly easy just means you need a RDO 198 v 194...

    ^^^

    R.T.A. 11T or TL (I cannot see the tweeter well enough to say). If the tweeter is gold in color they are the TL, which is preferred over the T. TL = Trilaminate.

    I had a pair and they were really nice. A fellow Polkie helped me by rebuilding the x-overs after I purchased all of the parts (Solen caps& mills resistors). Got the schematic from @KennethSwauger

    We made new bases for them with spikes. That was a fun project.

    Speaking of a fun project, I see that these are located in Pilsen! Some of the BEST Mexican food in Chicago is in/around this neighborhood. National Museum of Mexican Art isn't too far away either.

    I regret sometimes selling mine.

    They do GREAT right up against the wall. The mains and tweeters are still made since they use SDA drivers.

    The passives are all you CANT FIND unless you stumble across some online. They are two different models.

    If your looking for nice speakers buy those.

    I paid 150 for mine IIRC and they didn't have an amp w em so it's a fair deal

    You'd have to get the silk dome replacement tweeters. The SL2000 are kinda harsh.

    FWIW - These are very efficient. I powered them with my SI T-amp to very LOUD levels with no issues.

    TLs for sure, I can see the foam surrounding the tweeter. Good speakers I have them on HT duty and they hold their weight.

    I say TL. They have the spoiler above the tweeter, tweeters look like SL3000 (some SL3000 domes looked dark) and the cabinet looks like the TL as well. If it is labeled T, it may be a early release as some TL's were labeled T.
