Hi Y'all,
Guess what i did last night !!!
I am heartbroken..
My right channel fried a tweeter..
"OUCH" i have owned these RT-7's for about 6 years and never anything like this--"very strange"..I was working on the dirt bikes out in the driveway and had the music playin' with the window open wight next to the driveway (as i have done for 6 years) and all of a sudden the music went bland--oh gheesh, i said and went in the house to check it out and no right tweet.So during my desparate thought patterns i came up with the idea of maybe getting a used one on here for a reasonable price beens i am in a temporary financial hardship.
New ones are about 76 dollars and i cant swing that on such a quick emergency.The model number is --SL 6501...............
Then again i could just go to RAT SHACK and get a 15 dollar tweet to use until i can swing it the authentic tweet..
It just won't sound right tho".....
Well, at any rate--WHAAAAAAAAAAA---WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHAAAAAAAAAAAA---mommy I BWOKE MY TOY...

    Thanks Mantis,
    I did exactly that.. my new tweet is on its way...I just had to sacrifice something else in order to pull it off.
    Ahhhhhh,, the life of serious audiophiles..!!..:-)
    I thought for sure someone might come across a used one--ha,ha--this incident kinda accidentally proves how good polk Tweeters are--out of all the people out there in "POLKLAND" not one person would cough one up.. i don't blame them
    i guess we all know a damn good product when ew see/hear one...
