How can you tell the difference between the two? Do they have different markings?

Thanks

    the input terminals on the 194 I believe are smaller and the same size where the 198's one is small and one is bigger.

    Those are the only differences?



    I've been wondering this lately myself.

    I wasn't sure if the 198's had the foam rings around the tweeters like the SL-3000's have.

    No foam.

    The only way to tell them apart is as mentioned. The size of the terminals.
