    I have these....did any of you questioning the "chain of possession" think of PM'ing me? It took someone pm'ing me to even know there was a brew haha here.

    there were nibblers of interest but no one willing to commit to a road trip. I can;'t knee cap someone and force them to take them.

    they will be going to Amulford next, as he is the only one who fully confirmed interest. should be transfered next weekend.

    remember kids, PM's.......awesome for communication. like I look at every thread in this joint, seriously?

    hey Scottyboy, go f**k yourself!!

    you know, in retrospect maybe I shouldnt be upset. Its not like I let anyone know I had them, started a thread about it, did a review, and compared them to my current at use speakers right?


    oh......wait

    all of which could be found here

    http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/member.php?49694-ohskigod and then clicking "latest threads"

    but apparently my stealthy internet skills were too much to handle thus making contacting me impossible......like i'm off the frikkin grid.


    I'm shocked that questioning my integrity was somehow easier and less effort than clicking a mouse and sending me a PM. Darn....I almost got a free set of speakers, if it werent for you meddling kids!!

    Okay, my first rodeo as far as taking part in a polk trial, but if im correct, heres where we stand.

    They are in ohskigods possession, but will soon be with amulford, so lets try to remember who will have them, so we can send pms with friendly reminders roughly when they should be getting passed on.

    If im wrong, let me know, as i said, never done this before, i sorta thought the demo thread was where everyone touched base as to possession.

    Who the hell died and made you commandant?!?

    If this was your first "rodeo", you should have either A) kept your opinionated trap shut or

    B). Pm'd Mark if you really didn't know where they were as he RUNS THE DEMO (ands that's only me assuming you couldn't muster the brain power to look at the history and afformentioned threads to deduce i had them in the first place). Or

    C). All of the above.

    In other words, you don't accuse someone of a lack of communication for nefarious reasons unless you ACTUALLY TRY TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEM.

    Ya see, schwarcw and f1nut sent a pm when they were concerned, primarily because they are not knuckle dragging troglodytes

    WTF is wrong with folks? Polk gives you the chance to hear some damn fine speakers for nothing more than the cost of gas and not one person steps up to the plate!?! Sad, really sad showing there Polkies.

    Shoot, if the 703s are still floating around and y'all arent moving them, we'll gladly put them to good use in Texas. There's quite a few of us down here who would love another go with them.

    I totally agree. I would be all over those 707's if they weren't on the other coast.

    It looks like the 703's are moving now (see oshkigod's posts above); it's the 707's that are stuck in socal with mole.

    You should try to get the 707's to texas, and then we can work them to the East coast!!!

    hey mole, what are the dimensions of the boxes? I'll get a shipping quote. I'd be willing to help in the cost if that's what it takes to get them out here.:wink::biggrin:

    10-4.

    I PM'd Mark to get his thoughts/blessing on shipping them out here. If he's cool with shipping, I'd like to get a couple people, myself included, who would want to demo the 707's on the East coast to go in on the shipping cost.

    I really hope he's cool with this! I've heard the 703's and loved them, so I'm naturally very excited by the prospect of hearing the 707's!

    If it was possible, I'd love to help out but being north of the border, that's where the limitation starts and stops.

    Hope you guys figure it out.

    In moving the 707s, if anyone can get them near colorado to make an exchange I know there are a few of us here who would love to hear them. Im traveling back to Wisconsin in early July (yes, a ways away) but could take them with me to start filtering them back east, or I could stop anywhere along the way (nebraska, iowa, or kansas on the way back).

    Lou is a lot of things...but stealthy??? I dunno about that one. Jayzuz, Joe and doggy-style Mary....some of you people REALLY need to get a grasp. All of this technology, phones, computers, email, facebook (not to mention the forum) and Lou just drops off the grid??

    Oy.

    Don't apologize, completely my fault. It's been chaos for weeks now and I'm behind on returning emails/phone calls.
