Greeting Polksters!

Upon further review - it appears that I have a burned MB driver in my new 5b's on one side (I already swapped drivers so I know it's the driver not the crossover). So I have a couple questions hopefully someone can help me with...

1. Do I need to replace them as a set or can I just do one?
2. Anyone have a spare one they want to part with?
3. I don't see replacement drivers on the Polk Site specifically for this driver, do I just call and give them my speaker part number for replacement? I understand it should run about $48?

Thanks for any/all assistance - hope everyone had a great holiday! (I recieved a Csi3 Center as top gift!!) :D

    Many people have called Polk directly and they tell you what you need, how much and send it to you. I have dealt with Polk in Canada and they are great people. I would give them a call.

    In the beginning, all knowledge was new!

    Thanks Michael - that's what I figured but I thought I would float the idea of a used one as well...

    Also - is it OK to just replace the one or should they be both done at the same time?

    What is the specific model number of the driver you need?

    I may have one. I probably do NOT, but I may, and I'll check.

    Send me an email rather than reply here. I'm more likely to catch that and check for you.
