    Those icicles hurt when they bang off your head...........

    dough spent on luxuries is well used, since they are luxuries you dont need them, you just enjoy them, of course you have to be into enjoyment.

    or the ones that get it, got it, get it!!!!!!!

    necessaties always cost, a definete waste, the nude dont need any house clothes and the Emporer is Naked while enjoying his luxuries, which may be free, lest the wasteful necessaties interupt the bliss with the blase.

    Words for funk or for funky, get it.

    I like mine also. The biggest improvement was when I threw the Sunfire on them. After that I never looked back.

    the use of hi-end electronics with Polk speakers is a very worthwhile path to pursue.

    I concur! I originally was just running my LSi Stuff off my Sony ES Receiver and found out real fast what was the weakest link. Bad thing is once you start down that addicting road of Upgradeitis its hard to stop. Once I got the amp I had to have a voltage stabilizer and surge protection, Then it was a new sub, then I had to have the Velodyne SMS-1 for the sub and the rest was history (Well at least the money was history). LoL

    For those that don't think big SDA's would sell today, I would like to point out that our "Looking for SDA's" thread has 87,795 hits in the last 5 years. Yeah, that's 87,795!

    Yeah Jesse,

    That was mostly me looking for some 3.1TL's. The number of hits should decrease now that I bought some.:p;):D

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    That's great however, this sort of stats do not point to how many would actually buy new ones (this thread is only related to vintage SDA).

    This is the speaker Polk Will release.
    Business is tricky, you have to have something that people can afford to buy,and realize an improvement in quality!!
    The most people that buy, spend less than 1K on surround.
    The top end speaker area is full.
    Look at the improvements Polk made on the RTi line. =RTiA
    There is no reason to release a product that has a very limited market.
    No mater how good it is who would notice?
    It gets really interesting, do you have 5K to spend on fronts? I do not.
