I have a set of RT2000is and a CS400i in my home theater setup. All three speakers use the same model tweeter, however the center channel tweeter appears to have a magnet attached to the back while the towers do not.

Does anybody know the reason for this? I can provide picks if it helps.

Thanks!

    It's probably a bucking magnet for shielding purposes.

    Hmm, so if I was replacing this tweeter, would I want to remove that and attach it to the new one?

    Anomymouse is correct, as long as it's not mounted near a CRT you should be fine.
