Hi all,

I am the Pumpkinman aka Bill. I'm new to the Club Polk and think this is a good way to introduce myself.
Anyone who wants to take a chance just pick a number between 1 and 30. In about 2 weeks I'll pick a
winner. Then send me your address and I'll mail them to you

Thanks..............P-man

    Welcome to CP

    Cool way to introduce yourself. I'm not in since I'm not a vinyl junkie.

    Very kind and generous offer Bill (aka Pumpkinman). Not in either as I am not a vinyl junkie, but do find it sounds phenominal! Welcome to Club Polk!

    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.....

    That John Prine and Piper are pretty darned good. I own them not in. Welcome to Club Pollk. That Piper was Billy Squires band before he went solo and came out with Tales Of The Tapes, and Don't Say No, that Piper is pretty hard to come by. Good luck to all that are participating.

    Here's the story on this. About 2 weeks ago I came across a white label promo copy for a $1. I picked it up and can now pass on my 2nd copy.
