    Description

    Offered for your consideration is a
    Polk Audio
    MW4801
    poly cone 5 inch woofer
    removed from my CS225 center channel speaker, USA-manufactured in 1998.  This shielded-magnet mid/bass driver was also used in the CS250 and possibly some other Polk speakers from the 1990’s.
    So, please have a look at my large photos and read the remaining description to decide if this capable mid/bass woofer is correct for your needs.
    Although the listing is written in singular to avoid any confusion, two (2) Polk Audio 5” poly cone woofers are available at time of this writing.  Please choose if you’d like to buy one or both in the quantity field at the top of the listing.  The shipping cost will be automatically calculated by eBay checkout
    .
    This Polk woofer is in clean, excellent condition.  The sturdy, poly cone is flawless and so is the voice coil dustcap.  Plus, the cone suspension is
    permanent
    rubber instead of the decay-prone foam found on other brands.  In addition, the black enameled steel basket is in great shape with just some light oxidation on the galvanized bell over the heavy, double-stacked magnet structure.  Lastly, the +/- terminals are marked for polarity and have never been soldered on the spades. It’s an exceptionally well-preserved woofer overall.
    Most importantly, it’s been fully tested and sounds great—fast, detailed midrange and strong bass for the platform size.  Plus, I tested its DC resistance at 6.7Ω consistent with a nominal 8 ohm driver rating.  Lastly, the basket measures 5” across, it stands 3⅛” tall, and the mounting holes are spaced 3⅛” adjacent / 5 7/16” diagonal apart, c-t-c.
    As pictured and described, this Polk Audio poly cone 5" woofer is offered at a competitive price.
