in Vintage Speakers
I bought a pair of Polk power port speakers there is no model number nothing that will indicate what they are. The speakers look very similar to the RT151 but these are smaller. The outside dimensions are 11" x 6.75" x 7.5" they have the 5.25 midrange/woofer and .75 dynamic balance tweeter. As far as dimensions go the R10 is almost dead on but its not a power port speaker. I have tried my best can anyone offer an idea of what these might be ??
Thanks

    If you click on this these are the exact speakers you will see they look exactly like the RT bookshelf series but I cannot find one that has the same size as these, however if I measure from the back of the power port it's 8.5" then it looks like these are RT 151"S or the RT15i according to the dimensions on CNET its dead on. Your opinion?

    I think RT25's maybe.

    RT15 had a 0.75 inch tweeter. RT25 had a 1 inch tweeter.

    The RTxxi line was a later minor improvement and can be identified by their blue tinted mid-woofer drivers.

    Looks like an SL5000 tweeter

    I know its not the 25 the RT 25 is 10+ inches deep the 15 is 8.5 measuring from front to back of power port. Based on those measurements !!" x 6.5" x 8.5" it has to be an earlier model RT not a RT-- i series the 5.25 mid is black not blue. The 25 also has the 1" my daughters has the .75" tweeter. So all things considered its a RT15 older model. Thanks for the help!!

    I have to check my stable and see if there is a RT15 in it.

    I forgot Polk made one and I didn't do any research this morning.
