I'm looking for 2 original woofers for the original Baby Advent model A1002, sometimes called the Baby 1. Either working with good foam or in need of refoaming.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Just now saw the thread. I have a couple and the little subwoofer they sold with some of those systems. Won't wake the neighbors, but still pretty cool.

    I've heard mention of a matching sub, but I've never seen one. Is it powered or passive?

    It's passive. Speaker wire into sub from amp or receiver and then back out to the speakers. I'd guess it goes down to mid 40's- so a little more low end than the mini's on their own. I used it on my computer desk for awhile and it's just collecting dust now. I'll try and pull it out and take some pics tomorrow.

    Thanks for digging it all out.

    Those are the Mini Advents, which I believe came out later than the original Baby Advents. Do you know if the same sub was offered for both models?

    Honestly, I have no idea. I did have the baby Advents as well at one time but moved them to a new home. These would make a night bedroom setup.

    Ok, thanks.
    These would make a [nice] bedroom setup.

    Yep, I'm putting together a little vintage rig for the guest bedroom. Should be pretty sweet after I get finished modding all of it. :cheesygrin:
