Have a pair of rt1000's that I'm more than satisfied with for the last 15 years.
Question is, I recently moved and the base of one of the towers was broken. Is there any place I can get a replacement base to get it back to normal. I still have all 4 feet to put back into the base if I can find a replacement part.
Thanks for any info provided!

    This pretty much sets in concrete, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER PIECE OF EQUIPMENT FROM THEM.

    The company probably won't be responding to you here, just us knuckleheads who can't really help you. Try calling them directly on Monday. If they have a solution, they're usually very helpful.

    Also, imagine complaining about any other product/customer support after 15 years... Temper your expectations.

    Its VERY doubtful that they have your part. The speakers are almost vintage at this point. EBay is your best bet, and the part will probably pop up but it might take a couple months...

    If you're into woodworking, you should be able to fabricate one.

    Yeah it won't be the same, in appearance, but you should be able to get it close. Or make a matched set, call em custom :smile: The plastic cone on the base is just glued in place, comes off easily to be re-used.

    BTW, welcome to the forum!
