I'm working on putting together an auction of audio related items donated by Matt Polk to be held here. All the proceeds will benefit the Githens Center. Before anyone says, but we don't do auctions here, you would be right, this will be the only exception.

I'll make an offical thread hopefully later this week, so start saving your dollars as this is for a very worthy cause.

Teaser....

Polk Audio DS7200 - speakers only
DreamVision DreamWeaver One projector
Polk Audio miDock Portfolio
Sony X707ES CD player
Denon DVD-2910 DVD/CD player
iPort FS-5

    A good cause?
    And I *am* looking for a new CD transport...

    Sounds like a Win Win to me...

    Very, very nice and very, very classy.

    As a thought, you know what would be way cool and could/should/would bring in a nice sum for the Githens Center ?
    A lab coat signed by Matthew Polk. Straight up.

    Good luck, this is a very worthy venture.

    To quote (I think) Flounder in Animal House:

    :-)

    (oh, and I'd rather have signature Mini-Monitors than a lab coat, in case anyone's interested...)

    One week sounds good - long enough to get the bidding up :-) -- but not so long as to get forgotten.
