What would I do with this? My days of building speaker boxes to cram into the back seat of my car are looooong gone.
Green because Polk is good equipment and this price seems to be very good.

I have a pair of floor-standing JBL L80T (yes, from the late 80s both of which have their sub-woofer cones separated from the foam+circular-holder-ring (I'm sure I'm showing my ignorance with these sub-par descriptions). Can I purchase these Polk 10 inchers and use them to replace my JBL L80T sub-woofers? Thanks to everyone who replies, in advance.

I think size and impedance matching will be the top need and then you go into more details of Crossover and real best fit. If you go just with price then match impedance and size and go for it.

Like davnil said Impedance is likely a mismatch 4ohm v 8ohm You'd be better off going to Parts Express dot com and getting something-likely for less

damn it, this would go great in the z5500 subwoofer box!
Thank you Davneil and WindWalker! I'll try to get the SWs refoamed at a local speaker repair shop.
