It's another steaming hot July in Baltimore/Washington, DC, which means it's time for the Capital Audiofest. Take note, it's at a new venue this year.

Also take note that after 3 years of getting the Polk Audio name out to audiophiles for some reason Polk will not be set up this year. There were a lot of people last year that were really impressed with the LSiM series, people who would not have otherwise considered Polk speakers. My dead honest opinion, the Polk/MIT/Bel Canto rig was the second best of the entire show. Not doing the show this year is inexcusable!!!

^^^I do believe he was.^^^
That's unfortunate Polk isn't setting up a demo.
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."![:\](https://forum.polkaudio.com/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

I have attended this show in the past and it is a great value! Lot's of good stuff to hear and learn. Take an extra day to see some sights and get a good meal.Carl
