    You're Crazy! Nope, never owned them, wouldn't mind some, but no. I was looking at some MartinLogan Motion 12s, which I still might move on, but not the amazings.

    Don, let Mark know that I am willing to take them from you back down to Indy with me and can then work out transport to members in Ohio, or back toward IL, or whatever is needed.

    If you dont need to use me as a stop, no worries.

    I'm reading guys. That's fine. The speakers will ship today or tomorrow.

    Who's in Ohio and surrounding areas?
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I am sure Mark will let me know next steps :biggrin: It would save me on shipping costs if you took them though, so that would be fine with me.

    I am getting really excited for this demo. I have a couple local folks coming and combine that with the folks here and we should have a decent turnout.

    Sorry you can't make it cstmar01... I am hoping the closer we get, the more we can get to come.

    Enders Shadow, do you think indyhawg would be interested in coming?

    Thanks Dan. Those hours work for me. We can go later than 6:00 if need be, but we can set that as a soft ending time. I am on my iPhone right now or I would edit it :) Food suggestions are welcome. Let me know what you like. Anything anyone would like to bring or chip in food wise would be awesome!

    It's actually just bricks in a pretty box...let me know that they arrived safe and in good condition please.

    Cmon Polkies, take advantage of Don's generosity of opening his home for a looky loo on the signature Polk speakers we have right now. If you're close, you have no excuse.
