Monitor 10A's
Hello,
I've owned a lot of speakers through the years everything from JBL L200 studio monitors to Shahinian Obelisk. I recently bought a pair of Polk monitor 10A speakers from the original owner. These are my first Polk speakers and they appear to be all original.
My question is after reading several post should I do anything to the magnets on the drivers before I try them out? When pushing in on the PR all four woofers move freely and quite, no sounds of anything rubbing.

It is a good idea to put a bead of Loctite Power Grab along the top and bottom edges of the magnets. This will help prevent the magnets from shifting if they get moved around. You may want to consider upgrading the crossovers with some new capacitors and resistors. It will make a world of difference.

The original Powergrab is no longer available / hard to find. Its been replaced by Powergrab Express. IMO the newer is not as nice, and a little messier because it dries faster, but works just as well.
