Which monitor 7 is this? From what I've read it's likely a series 2 or 7c but how do I know?

    7C. Series II never had SL2000 tweeter; it had SL2500.

    It's a later one. Earliest 7C had the SL1000 and a fuseblock and the cabinet was not beveled.

    Aha, alright. Thanks for clearing up the confusion, then i assume the rdo-194 tweeter is the correct replacement
