    I have an idea of what that is, but it would have to arrive at my door from the mailman for me to be sure ;). I'll PM the shipping details.

    Those would be the new line of speakers that are replacing the Momos. And you would be the lucky **** thats getting a set!

    Not crazy about the grills but the speakers look great....and who uses grills anyway?

    i think the grills will grow on ya :). i know their growing on me :). With matching grills for the new MM subs, they got the makings for a really cool show car :)

    (with the new amps and now these, am really liking the new Polk 2008 line-up :). Can't wait to see what else they got cooking up :))

    Those look sweet! :D Congrats, man. I'm sure you're gonna be one of the first people to have a pair.

    Are there two different models? I'm curious why they called them mm6501 instead of mm6500. :confused:

    Very nice! That driver looks freakishly like the SR Driver!

    ... if the tweeter and crossover weren't there, I'd think it were a small sub.

    Those look awesome! They do look like SR's from the side but the surround is much beefier! I can wait to hear a set of these.

    I was at Fry's and they had them for $299.00.

    They also had 12" MM subwoofers. I forgot what the price was on them.

    They are now up on Crutchfield.

    Other Speakers

    They also seem to have grills for the MM series subs here. Note the grills for a MM1540/MM1540D. They're all nice, but I'm still am after a complete SR setup.

    Oh and another note, they all have only a 1 year warranty. One of the big reasons I came over to Polk is that they had the guts to back up their speakers with 3 year warranties. Its the same reason I'm going with JL amps, they back em for 2 years. Not sure whats going on there, as the SRs only have 1 year warranties now too for some reason.:(

    Probably due to all the idiots who think they know how to install and blow their equipment up.

    Cody not everyone that blows their shlt up is an idiot. How about when Polk ships the wrong xovers in the box and you end up with fried xovers?

    Or how about rating the equipment at 125 Watts RMS but dont push them near their rated capacity for over 1 hour.

    Granted there are some boneheads that do some silly crap.
