  RTA 15TL
  
  Not mine. Look to be in nice shape. Price might be a tad high, but I'd go look if I were local.

  If I had 450 these would now be in my room and I would have a FM ad for a set of Monitor 60's and maybe a PSW125.......
  
  Bet they would love the power from my Carver amp :frown:

  They may be "new tweets", but they don't look like the right ones.

  I noticed that too Cincy,but I'm not familiar with the RTA line. I wasn't sure if some of the fellow polksters here who have modified their RTA's have switched out the tweeters also.Maybe some will chime in.
