    Forbidden Planet is one of the absolute best science fiction movies of all time.

    Airplane is one of the funniest movies of all time.

    Mr. Nielson will be missed.:frown:

    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.....
