    I have checked ebay there was an ad for 6500,In his picture you can see its 6600x.Is this a replacement for the mw6500? The speaker is marked with m10 stamp.I don't want to waste money on the wrong speaker.Thanks Dan

    I believe the lady told me 48.00 if you mention you a forums member.She new her stuff tell her what monitor 7s you have she will take care of you.Call the number at top right, ask for parts.

    Go for the MW-6503 from Polk. I made the change in my 7Bs a number of years ago along with a crossover upgrade. Took some time to totally break in (could have been the crossover), but I really like how they sound.
