I would love to demo some of Polk's RTiA and LSi speakers... but I can't find any BM store that carries them... and I live in MD!!! I don't understand it.

Does polk have a demo room at their HQ in Baltimore that folks can go to and try out these speakers? If so, can anyone supply any details (where, when open)?

Thx,

    Have you tried Soundscape in Baltimore?

    I haven't... but in looking at their website, they do not carry the RTi A line...

    hmm... I guess I can give them a call. Major bummer, not having good access to these two lines of speakers!

    The Where To Buy link above indcates they carry the RTiA series, but not the LSiM. The last time I was there they had the LSi's, but that was before the LSiM's came out. Yeah, give'em a call.

    I'll give them a call. I'm surprised Polk doesn't have a listening room at its HQ!

    I bet if you make the trip to PolkFest in a couple of weeks, they'd be happy to let you listen to a pair of whatever Polks you want! After all, "listening" is part of what happens there!

    Here's the entire thread, you'll have to plow through a lot to get to the address, etc.

    Sept 21st at 9 AM (Friday) will be the day at Polk HQs!
