    I bought a brandnew SL1000 from the dealer of Hong Kong recently. I know they still have stocks. :)

    PM'd you, Hamatym, and sent an email to those two suppliers, ANWKLO. Thanks for the link, btw. I do want vintage/used tweeters though.

    That tweeter has not been made for about 20 years. What color is the faceplate of the one you bought?

    Anwklo, Are those pictures you actually got from your HK supplier or just examples of a SL1000?
    Also, which supplier did you use, that had new SL1000's?

    Anyways--I think those are generic SL1k pictures.

    Good to know...thanks.
    I have a 7B that have the silver SL1000's and they don't seem to pop-up for sale around here as much as the other model of tweeters.

    That tweeter isn't new, it was made in 1988. It may be NOS, but like I said, they haven't been made in a long time. IMO, I think you'd find that the RD0194-1 sounds better.
