You said it all Jesse........
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 bought a grill today.
I got it from Lowes because one Home Depot person couldn't be bothered with me on her lunch break. Another Home Depot person at another store couldn't even be bothered to help. I asked if he had the grill in stock. He looked at the shelf, look at the ceiling, said "I dunno" then walked to the front desk, grabbed his returns and started putting them away while I stood there at the end of the aisle watching him.
I was going to put the grill together this afternoon but it's raining like the dickens.
I think I ate a chicken bone. It was pretty pointy going down. Can't imagine what it's going to be like coming out.
My brother's fuel tank is leaking in his truck. Now I get to fix that.
I'm supposed to be on vacation, dammit!

'I got it from Lowes because one Home Depot person couldn't be bothered with me on her lunch break. Another Home Depot person at another store couldn't even be bothered to help.
Made an internet order a couple of weeks ago on Lowes website for a Porter Cable reciprocating saw and a bunch of blades. Good deal. Printed out the confirmation order and my sons and I went to the customer service desk the next morning to pick it up.
Took 45 minutes for the floor picker to do his thing, but that was okay.
Why ? Well, I'm not sure if it's my cell phone or my car key fob, but I always set off the "Please return to the Sales Associate Area" alarm when I leave the store. Always.
So as we were patiently waiting, a crew was bringing stuff in and out from the front of the store. As they did so, they locked the sliding doors open to make their job easier. If the "Please Return to the Sales Assocate Area" alarm goes off, though, the doors close.
So ... wait for them to go out the door, give them time to load up their flatbeds, and I'd casually wander near the door.
Set the alarm off, doors close, the Customer Service Rep would have to go reset the system from inside, rinse and repeat.
For 45 minutes.
Yes, even though no grills were involved, much excitement was had that day !Sal Palooza -
