10-4 Ted! You get what you accept.

Yep.
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.....

This is soo wrong.... the only thing that matters is how many cold ones you have next to you. The more you drink the better the music sounds so nothing else matters :razz::biggrin:. 1 6 pack makes my system sound like its got MIT Oracle wire and interconnects :eek:

Further Contemplation.
Given Everything Matters.
And Anti-Matter is part of everything.
Then Anti-Matter Matters.
Enjoy it while it lasts.

If everything matters and nothing doesn't matter, does something matter more than everything? For example, more **** and less cleavage?

I think Ted has been to the "other side", maybe had a conversation with Dr. Alexander? Everything matters till it doesn't. What would Eben say?
