Frozen Monitor 10A Driver

softsynth

I just picked up a pair of Monitor 10A's for a bargain. One of the drivers is frozen so I need to replace it (6-1/2 in) . It is the MW6500 model. Does any one know where to find replacements? Thanks.

Welcome to the Club
You can find them often on E-Bay or one of the fellow members may have one for sale. I have a few spares but don't want to part with anything these days. Also Polk Customer Service has them for about $50.00 each for members.

Do you know how compatibility works between the MW6500 and the MW6501, MW6502, and MW6503?

NJPOLKER

It doesn't

So the MW6500 is the only option? I've heard of people using the various MW650X versions.

Well, another driver, of comparable impedance will work; maybe not as "perfectly" as intended, but it will work...

If it is the paper ringer 6500 I have one I can sell. Polk recommends the 6503 as a replacement, but you should really replace both. Polk sells them for $48 shipped to Club Polk members.

It's the MW6500 with a rubber surround if that's what you mean. If so, yeah. Send me a PM.

End of thread.
I'm starting another looking for a replacement.
