Sales lady said everyone likes the new silk dome tweeters? Are the new SL2000 & RDO 194 the same? Thanks. Darryl

    well yes but the stock number is RDO-194 so when you call up and ask for a sl2000 replacement you'll get a RDO-194. Call up and ask for a SL3000 you'll get RDO-198

    The SL2000 and the RDO-194 are not the same. The RDO-194 is a replacement for the SL2000. The RDO-194 will fit the same hole but the design and the sound is a big improvement over the SL2000. My 2 cents.

    Not sure they are the new SL2000's but it's the one they now offer. As of everyone liking them........I heard that is true for the most part. I also talked to a couple guys that prefer the original tweeters, so it boils down to a preference thing I guess.?
