This post is for all the wonderful Polkies who have expressed their well wishes and prayers for my son who had contracted lymphoma this past spring.

Eric has been rescaned for his disease after completeing chemo therapy and no residual cancer has been detected. We now need to see him back to complete health and strength after the battering of therapy.

I am thankful to ALL for the outcome we in our family have been waiting for.

Thanks Everyone.

    Great News!
    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul!

    Definitely a great news :) Now praying for speedy recovery. As pointed out, kids recover very quickly once they are out of danger.

    May God bless your family for much better days!

    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.....
