Do all RTA 11Ts come with a base?

Greetings from Montreal - Canada,

I've been getting a lot of great information from this forum. Yesterday, I decided to join. I've been enjoying my Monitor 5 Series II I bought in '92. One of the SL-2500s died and I can't seem to find a used replacement at a reasonable price here (it's patched with an old Peerless). :-(

I just bought a pair of RTA 11T. Enclosure outsides have seen better days, but the drivers are in good shape (except for a small dent on a tweeter dome) and the crossovers are supposed to be original (didn't check them yet). Initial sound test is OK. These will be part of my upcoming basement vinyl vintage system (will be buying amp and TT). I'll have time in a couple of weeks to check the interiors, reinforce the magnets and possibly recap the crossovers (I don't change components unless they test bad).

On all the 11T pictures I've seen, there is a 1"-high recessed base. Mine doesn't have it. Have you come across this model without a base?

Thank you all.
Monitor 5 Series II
RTA 11T
