Looking for 2x MW 6501 woofers for my RTA-12C

Hi!

As the title mentions, I'm looking for two MW-6501 speakers to finish restoring my beloved set of RTA-12C.

Let me know if you have anything that would do the trick.

Thanks!

    I do not believe so they were used in SDA's and RTA12's MW6600 may also work for you.

    I ended up ordering some 6503 from Polk as per their suggestion. That being said, I'll leave the ad up as I would much prefer to find some matching drivers.

    Cheers!

    Seems different by looking at spec's

    I'm sure they would know keep an eye on ebay they do come up often.

    be sure to trim the rubber around the screw holes so you do not foul up the rubber.
  • Thanks for the specs... I was aware of the differences, but at this time, it's my best alternative to revive the RTAs.

    I'll definitely keep my eyes open for some 6501s.

    Cheers!
