B's can be equipped with either Peerless or SL1000 and MW6600X - Fused
C's can be equipped with SL1000 and 6600X or MW6501 OR SL2000 and MW6501 - early C's are fused, later C's have a polyswitchafterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

Peerless is by far the tweeter of choice. Midwest Speaker sells a Peerless clone that is very good. -

I don't know why I thought there wasn't an RDO replacement for the 1000'swestmassguy wrote: »The 194s are also the approved replacement for the SL1000s too.afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

Let me add that I had some RTA12B's that I recently sold and they employed a poly switch that I removed and replaced with a resistor.
SL1000/Peerless use the same crossover network and are interchangeable agreed. I replaced my SL1000's with Peerless and now have a few extra SL1000's laying around. There was a difference but it wasn't night/day like there is with SL2000's.
