    It looks like he has 3 speakers and wants $75 per speaker.

    It's the RTA (real time array) series, not the RT (reference theater) series.

    looking at the schematic, it uses the mw6501 woofer.

    i wonder if the clist advertiser
    has the incorrect model designation

    the schematic also show a rev using the MW6510 mid/bass driver
    06/1/1989

    is there a way to tell by the serial number ?

    He does but the pictures name the model, so it doesn't really matter. It's an RTA8T...period.

    LOL, my bad it was a typo. 6510 is correct.

    The 8TL uses the 6516
