What's the model # and price for a RTi35 tweeter? I keep seeing these bookshelf speakers out there with blown tweets....

    There is no such speaker as a RTi35. There is a RT35i which would use the tri-lam tweeter part # BD0125-W which is no longer made or available from Polk. There is a replacement soft dome tweeter part # RD6514-3 which will fit. There was a RTi38 which uses the soft dome tweeter mentioned above. Polk still sells the RD6514-3 tweeter and it is around $70 with the Club Polk discount as I recall.

    Cool - thanks for the info, shack. I'd have to replace both tweeters, then, which increases the price significantly. I think I'll keep holding out for intact units.

    Here's the speakers in question, anyway: http://cgi.ebay.com/POLK-AUDIO-BOOSHELF-SPEAKERS-RT35_W0QQitemZ270098790341QQcategoryZ71572QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
