Does any one know if Polk makes a 16 ohm version of the aerated polypropylene drivers that are in the LSi series? I have sent the tech support folks at Polk the same question, but I thought I would ask it here too...

I can't fully let the cat out of the bag yet, but, it involves more extensive mods to the LSi series...HT: Ninja Master LSi9s, Ninja Master LSiC, Slightly Modded LSiFXs, Modded LSi7s, Outlaw LFM-1 EX and Polk PSW125

Ok so my next question is.... Does anyone build a 16 ohm speaker today? 40 to 50 years ago 16 ohm was common finding one today??????

No. There are similar drivers out there that are 8ohms though.Does any one know if Polk makes a 16 ohm version of the aerated polypropylene drivers that are in the LSi series? I have sent the tech support folks at Polk the same question, but I thought I would ask it here too...
Yes, hardly anyone though. It's almost as bad as finding a decent 8ohm tweeter.disneyjoe7 wrote: »Ok so my next question is....
