Monitor 10 Speaker Grill Retainer "Balls"

Are there replacements available? Found a very clean set of 10a's with rosewood vinyl at a thrift shop. I talked myself out of buying them because 2 of the grill retainers are broken, but I feel like they are too nice to pass up.

Take the bottoms ones out & install them on top. Then use replacements when you get some OR magnets or velcro on bottoms maybe ? Those will come out if your careful & go easy..

The PE ones are not an exact replacement, but they are close enough to work.Political Correctness'.........defined

Once you get the holes cleaned out, you can take measurements, order the best size even if slightly smaller the use adhesive to fill and secure.

I think the price is per speaker. I bought some speaker stands at a thrift that were marked “$16.” on each one. At checkout, they were $32. Still, $150. a pair for Monitor 10s is good!

I thought so too, but I went back today and picked up the pair for $75! Had one blown fuse but are fine otherwise. They cleaned up nicely.

The grille support pegs are called "tree locks" in Polk's parts inventory.
