I have both pairs. The ported 5jrs have tweeters with a silver plate compared to the 5jrs which have the SL2000's.

Are these tweeters interchangeable?

The 5jrs with the bass radiator are pretty rough and I may just part them out and keep the ported cabinets.

Thanks

    I don't believe that the SL1000s (the "silver plate" tweeters) are a direct-swap for the SL2000s, either physically (different size mounting plate) or electronically.
