    I may take one or both of my FX500's with me to get him to autograph. I'll ask him to sign the side with only the tweeter since there's more room.

    Micah...any chance? Please? Pretty please? With Old Bay seasoning on it? With Old Bay seasoning and a cold brew on it? Ok, with crabs and beer on it!

    U drive a hard bargain!
    No excuses!

    Beer......now that should certainly be a motivator :)

    OK guys, looks like we are looking at this range for the visit.......

    August 18th - 22nd or 25th - 27th......We probably should get in a few days before Labor Day weekend....would the earlier week, 18/22 be a better suggestion? Let me know what you guys think.

    Wow, I as one simple question and every jump on me. Calm down a little bit guys. I just wanted to know what you guys were planning on doing. If you want to see the corportate offices that's great!!

    But I work here!!!!

    <---- Look at what is says under my name. I'm a web developer, I work with Justin.

    The demo room is definetly a great part of the trip but if they will let you back there I would suggest going to the car bay as also see how the work on the show cars. When you guys get here there might be another nice one. I know they are getting a sweet sweet ride comming very soon but it will probably be done by the end of the month so you guys will have to see it on the web page. Well I guess I'll see you guys here on like a month. If you guys have any question, or if I can help let me know.

    You guys are nuts. I didn't know you'd post to forum with this.

    But since you have, you should all know that everyone at Polk is jazzed about this.

    WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU (whomever's in charge of organizing this): date of visit and people count. Give us at least a few weeks' heads-up on this.

    WHAT WE WILL PLAN: A ready and rarin' demo room, LSi & new RTi ready to play a selection or two from the CDs and DVDs you've always wanted to hear on Polk speakers, tour of the super exciting Polk Audio corporate offices, including Matt's own esspresso machine, Polk Paul's junk-filled cell, Tomasz's lowly cube and Larry Miller's tropical shirts, some food, some nifty Polk stuff to take home, and prolly a meet & greet with Matt hisself (that's why we need plenty of heads-up, he's a busy guy after all, but Jesse'll vouch that once you get him talking it's tough to shut him down -- he loves you guys!).

    Get the point man to contact me directly and we'll make it all official. Eh?

    Are we good to you or what? Kiss kiss.

    IF I thought Matt Polk would really sign a set of speaker trim AND/OR if John Strong brought his 'Stang I think I would have to attend... Any chance of either?

    Hey Chuck,

    You have to confirm and verify if Matt will be available to sign:) I might rent 12wheeler to have them all my Polks to be autographed by Matt:D

    I want to see the 20th Anniversary Edition of SDA's too...;)

    Tomasz,

    You work at Polk....hehe......ok, I won't tell Matt. ;)



    Chuck,

    I'd bet Matt would sign them, he signed some stuff for Tour and I. If you need my van for hauling the big boys, just say so.



    Har,

    You better get down here, you're welcome to stay at the house.

    Sounds like a great time. Maybe it'll be the First Annual Club Polk Open House.

    Sign me up for the 2004 edition...

    Just remember to remind Micah daily that you're coming. Start about a week before the date of the visit. ;)
    More later,
    Tour...

    Thing is, I can't truly promise a thing. Depends on school, and the happening of that day. I will strongly talk to my Dad about it between now and friday and report back though.
