How to Identify my Model of Speakers
Hello!
I have 2 Polk Audio speakers, which I no longer have the manual for. I am trying to identify their model #. I have had these speakers for years. On the back it says: polkaudio Monitor Series 2, M4.6 9028501, Designed and Manufactured in the U.S.A. by Polk Audio, Inc. Baltimore, MD.
I removed one grill cover and set the speakers side-by-side. Attached is my photo. I hope this helps. I have no idea how to set up these speakers with my audio equipment. I'm a newbie with this.
Thanks for all your help!

The 4.6 was only available in the series 2 generation, and the step between the monitor 4.5 and the 5jr+.
