Try posting a want to buy ad here...someone might have the mid-woofer that you need laying around.
Keep your eye on ebay too, they pop up on there from time to time.
Good luck with your search.

Here's a little more info on the S10's...Scroll down to post #7 of this thread for a wiring schematic...

According to that, there were two versions of the S10. The standard S10, and the S10SE(I assume "SE" is special edition). It looks like the standard S10's used the MW8000, and the S10SE used the MW8101.
My best guess is that you need an MW8000, but you'll definitely want to pull the driver to make sure. Polk is known for having a lot of transitional models, and using different components within the same series of speakers.The nirvana inducer-

based on the product page it is the MW8000 Dynamic Balance 7.5" driver.
Although the wiring diagrams also have a SE version that had MW8001 driver.

Thanks for the help......I found that ad this morning on a google search and possibly an ad he had on the DIY forums from June......

Seems like the same person.......just wanting to be very careful and make sure it's not someone scamming using the picture.
I sent him an email and PM.......I'll let you know how it goes.
