I just received my MW6510 driver from Polk for my RTA-11t's. The old one would botom out at moderate levels. I installed the new driver and matched the white and black cables. Now I only get sound from the tweeter. I reinstalled my old driver and everything is great (except the bottoming out problem). What's the deal? Did I get a bad driver and would that cause the problem in the other driver's sound level? Should I try reversing the wires? Thanks, Jeff

    Even with polarity reversed, you will still get sound from a functional driver.

    Hook the raw driver up to the speaker wire from your amp (free air), AT A VERY LOW LEVEL, and you should hear something....if you don't, call cs and send it back.....

    Cheers,

    I just tried and I get no sound whatsoever. I will call them tomorrow. I know it won't be a hassle, that's why I love Polk Audio. Again, thanks for the help!

    Sounds like you just got a lemon.......................a real rarity for Polk, but rest assured they will make it right.

    That is why they are GREAT!!!!

    Peace,
