    Default Current Production Drivers - Vintage Support

    These are the only drivers, aside from the RD tweeters, being manufactured to support vintage products, such as, Monitor, RTA and SDA. You should print this as a reference and keep it handy for the values it contains. There are no grill parts, cables, crossovers, plates or anything else available for the older loudspeakers, unless you know the Polk G O D.

    Does anyone know off the top of their head what Polk CS asks for the these? I'd like to make sure I have some MW6511's on hand, but they are a rare bird on the used market.

    Anyone know what a new MW 6502 costs? And if the pair price the same as each price, just X 2? Or is there a small discount or break in the price?

    I think they're close to 50 a speaker if you're a member here! Someone can correct me if I'm wrong!

    Well worth it. I was considering getting some back ups for my Monitors, etc.
