    Under the Support / Product Catalogs section I don't see the new LSiM series.

    Is that still being developed?

    I am just speaking out loud but I was venturing around the new site and the impression I came up with is you guys sell Musical Instruments.... and I know what Polk Audio was about...

    Infact I was looking for a debut of a line of Musical Instrument stamped with Polk on the head stock...

    Just feedback...

    The wood grain at the sides is visually distracting and irritating. Do we have the option not to see it?

    I believe they are working on restoring the widescreen option. I agree, hate the wood grain on the sides.

    I believe they are working on restoring the WOOD.

    Fixed! I think they're going to bring the sander in tonight, 2 coats of stain and 3 coats of poly will really make it pop.

    It's not bad, just a little out of place. Not what i expected wheni first signed in. Everything else looks decent and i like the look of the vintage pages as well. Now if only we could get rid of this --> :loneranger: <--!! Hate that guy and all that he stands for.

    All in all....nice job fellas!

    Big whoop.

    They are current product and not many used sets out there missing manuals. If it was me, I'd be calling Polk directly for support on speakers under warranty anyhow.

    Just thought I'd let you know, in case you hadn't noticed. On the polkaudio ebay site, in the descriptions of the items, none of the images work, since all the pathways to the images are different on the home site now. Not complaining, just thought I'd let you know in case it slipped by you.

    I thought the same thing.

    Agreed, other than the wood I like everything else however. I'm sure it will be "hidden" when the widescreen is fixed.

    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.....

    The product pages looked so much more professional before, and were so much easier to read. I sure hope that's not Polk's new logo at the top of every page.

    I like change, when it's for the better. That logo looks like it belongs on a line of toys for little girls.

    The wood is interesting. The wide screen option will be welcome! I know, patience.

    Great job!

    For once I agree with William, the new logo is a step back. Hopefully it's just an experiment.

    Agreed. Barn wood with a glossy finish is just tacky. It is the first thing that jumps out at me.
