I need a few sets to replace mortite on some vintage Monitor 7 speakers.
Yes, I could make some from gasket material, or use dense foam. Those are options if I can’t find the real deals!!

I’d like to keep my 7s “original Polk”. Message me. Thanks

    Many have used Armacell tape. Cut to width overlap at the end and cut on the diagonal, pick off extra so the diagonal cut meets at each end. It works very well and compresses very easily.

    That’s a good plan B, if I can’t find original gaskets. 👍

    Armacell is superior to the original...
