Hello everyone, I have a pair of RT 2000i speakers that have been in storage and they need new base plates with the floor spikes. I'm having trouble finding the parts as they haven't been made for quite some time. Any idea of where I can obtain these? I have worn Google out trying to find some. Thanks in advance.

P.S. I also emailed Polk and am awaiting a response.

    It would be best to CALL Polk.

    I'd call if it was an emergency. Since the subject is simply speakers, I can wait for a response when they have the time to do so. Anyways, I received an email from Polk and they do not have any.

    The stands I have still work, but one is slightly cracked. Looks like it's time to get creative or maybe even time to purchase a new setup.

    See if this guy will sell just the bases;

    If push comes to shove, one could make something out of wood. No it won't have the Power Port design but the speaker won't tip over either. Something simple like the OEM or like this:

    Looks like he wants $100 for everything(Tweets, mids, woofers, crossovers,and bases . I'm interested in the mids and tweets if you want to split things up. Let me know.
