I recently purchased a set of RTA 12b floor standers and the fuses for the tweeter were missing. Wondered if anyone knew what size I need there. Also, two of the sr 142/17 drivers have very small tears in the surrounds and I wondered what the best way is to repair the rubber, or if anyone knew where to find two replacement speakers. Thanks for your help.

    The fuses currently used are the 'AGC' type, fast blow, 1A (one amp), and are 1 1/4 inch in length. Straight from Polk 2 weeks ago.

    Sorry I don't understand what 'sr 142/17 drivers' are?

    The tweeter is normally a SL1000 and the mid-woofer should be their MW6501's.

    Polk Audio seller both new, the mid-woofer is $48 each with free s/h (for club members).

    It seems a number of people have used speakers available as myself. The MW6500, 6501, 6510 should all work great in your 12b's.
