    I wouldn't call him young, a few years younger (like count on one hand), he still was already an AARP member at that time.

    It is pretty sick that we all know what the back of Jesse's head looks like.

    I am going to take a shower now.

    Didn't see a whole lot of typos, but one that threw me was in the paragraph right after F1's pic:
    "In the early days of the audio industry, there were the huge electronics firms that manufacture red the bulk of our entertainment hardware. "

    Manufacture red the bulk of our entertainment hardware ?

    Embarrassed to say it took a couple of reading to figure out they weren't talking about Omega (?) speakers. :o

    "It's the delicate second movement of Mozart's D-minor Piano Concerto. It's the final terrible crescendo of Lyle Lovett's "L.A. County." It's "Planet Caravan" or "Everybody Hurts" or Patsy Cline's "Crazy."

    ( http://www.polkaudio.com/greataudio/art_of_sound_more.php )


    Now THERE'S definitely a different mix of tunes : Mozart, Lyle Lovett, Patsy Cline, and ..... Black Sabbath.

    Disregarding the extra bonus points Polk gets for throwing Sabbath into the mix, it's pretty impressive the way they can put out information that's also entertaining to read.

    Was that at the '05 or '08 HQ PF? I seem to remember that setup being in a dark room at the '05 PF. OR am I completely off base and it wasn't at a PF at all?

    I think i took that picture!

    I hope so, because there's something that's been bugging me about that shot:

    Was ""whomever" wearing a pair of shorts, or did Polk force "whomever" to put a towel across their lap ?

    And I think I was to the left of Trey. How the heck do we even remember stuff like that from 6 years ago... Maybe because it was an AWESOME day at an AWESOME place listening to some AWESOME sounds with AWESOME people! ;)

    Not sure but since I take a lot of pictures during a PF usually maybe it was me who took it. :)
