Just bought a pair of Eosone RSF 600 towers with a ripped tweeter. Looking to buy an OEM replacement or opinions on aftermarket replacements.
I found these:

My first exposure to Polk was back in 1986 or so. Walked into Audio Craft in Westlake, OH and a salesman was playing Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast through a set of SDA-SRS's...LOUD. Hooked ever since.
Current Setup:

If I remember correctly, Eosone used a metallized dome material for their tweeter...think a fabric impregnated with titanium.
If you replaced both tweeters, you should be fine (although the crossovers were built with that specific tweeter in mind)...at least from a timbre matching standpoint."Some people find it easier to be conceited rather than correct."

It's a titanium tweeter. Feels like a thick tin foil. I would defnitely change out both if going with a different tweeter. The highs remind me of JBL from the same time period (which I'm not a huge fan of). If I could find one OEM then I would go that route. If not then I would like to go with a peerless type sound.My first exposure to Polk was back in 1986 or so.

I installed the peerless replacement tweeters from PE and I gotta say it is a pleasant change. Much less harsh but more precise (to my ears anyway).
Overall these Eosones image well and have a lot of bass (a little on the boomy side but not annoyingly so). The "soundfield" effect isn't as in-your-face as SDA...sort of subtle.
I may just keep these for awhile and see if they grow on me.My first exposure to Polk was back in 1986 or so. Walked into Audio Craft in Westlake, OH and a salesman was playing Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast through a set of SDA-SRS's...LOUD. Hooked ever since.
