    Hmm, you guys got links to any installation guides out there. I'll e-mail Polk tonight, and see if they have idea whether MM sub could be used as a replacement...

    Thanks for the link. So it seems like DB series gets the vote over the MM model, because later is designed for a sealed design. Kind of a shame, cause MM model goes down to 26Hz according to Polk. One thing I noticed though, is that it seems stock sub has a bigger magnet?

    Magnet size is never something I worry about when choosing a driver.

    I have now tried both the momo Svc and the DB sub the momo is superior in every way I returned the DB subs after three week demo. The bass is tighter and goes a lot lower the DB sounds slow and muddy in comparison.

    Hi,
    I want exact diameter (not cut out) of the mm840svc, because it for replace the 8 woofer on my Lsi15's
    the diameters of my speaker his 20.8 cm if more than that do not fit on my speaker.
    the replacement for better sound is normally the db840svc by polk audio but i see the mm series and his look better!
    thanks for quick response
