    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.....

    Rick, normally there would be no question of the excellence of your offerings, but .....

    Raven Best of Show Lonestar Audiofest 2012.jpg


    Ummmph :eek:

    I guess, though, that "Best Of Show" award in the Cost No Object could apply to your pic, too. :loneranger:

    GD, that's some nice, nice, nice looking gear. Did I mention, "ummmph" ? Did I mention, "Jose Freakin' Crackers !" ?
    Consider it mentioned.
