Yes you can see the p/b socket
I'd pay it
I wonder why the left channel speaker has the red binding post nut on the right when the illustration shows it should be on the left?
Simple someone switched it -

Not sure why these are still for sale. Look to have updated RDO's. Are the doughnuts that inferior? If I didn't just get 1C's and spent the time and money upgrading I'd jump on these.

Oooo that isolation cable is worth 100.00

That's a good deal, especially with 300.00 worth of RDO's and the isolation cable it includes.
Somebody should jump on them.

They would have had SL2000's stock and look too black to be SL3000's. RDO194's would be the correct replacement tweeter."Make a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day. Light

This^^^^^^ completely agree
-
Agreed the stock was SL2000. The top and bottom are SL3000. You can see the foam ring. I am not sure about the center one. That one appears to be an RD0-19 something. Still a deal with the A1 interconnect and some version of an RD0.

I missed the foam, those are SL2500's in that case and are incorrect for that speaker. They don't replace SL2000's.
