    Skip, any idea how the 703's would compare to your Ushers of comparable size? Thanks in advance.

    I wasn't kiddin'! Got mine at 6:02 EST.

    Hey, silly question here, but are ALL the speakers priced as ONE speaker? I know that's common on larger/more expensive speakers, but even the lower priced bookies, or the atriums, or the computer speakers? I see a price and a pull down for quantity, so I'm assuming all prices are for EACH. It'd sure be nice if it mentioned somewhere (at least obvious/explicitly) if the price was EACH or PAIR... My eyes are getting old, so maybe I'm just missing it...

    I really don't need anything and already bought myself a Christmas present. But man, it's a good deal. Wife's gonna kill me. I think I may just pick up a pair of headphones. They all good or is there a star in the bunch? I prefer in-ear.

    Even an Atrium 8 SDI at half off is great. But I just don't need it!


    Wonder how a LSiM706c would sound with modded LSi9's. I have an LSiC, but would always prefer something nicer. :-) Can't go full LSiM setup at this time.

    The buckle is a nice sounding headphone , had mine for a few months now. My only complaint is they make my ears hot :smiley: but the build quality is fantastic.

    Son of a...... I ran four 705s with 706 as center and now I have a pair of 705s remaining.

    I am left with two options. One. Can't beat them, join them. Rebuild my theater back up. Or..

    Two. By a can of beer from me and I will include the 705s for free.

    Son of a... Lol.

    Good on you, Polk. Looks like I will get your inwalls for the home theater.

    I was looking at a surround bar for the computer. You have you choice, there are codes on the site right now on all of them to save $150 to $200 without the email, or you could save $50 more with the email.

    Not really what I was hoping for. Newegg has been having great deals on Energy surround bars, and they have larger drivers, and seperate tweeters. Polk seems to be going with 2" to 3" "Full range" drivers on most new products these days. Full range....right,

    Hey Ken - was all excited to get something and spent a bit of time last night looking at speakers and headphones. Finally decided on a pair of the UltraFocus 8000LE, but wanted to run it by the wife (and also make sure there was nothing else I wanted to add before checking out. This morning, looks like they're sold out... :'(

    Am I SOL? Or do you think they'll be back in stock by 12/6? Really liked the white/brown combo - the black do nothing for me. I'm in no rush. I'll even give polk my money now at the sale price. Was going to be my Christmas present...

    Thanks again Ken/Polk!! Happy Turkey Day!

    Really??? Polk does a cool thing like this for the membership and you come along and say that it's "not really what I was hoping for"? Then you take a swipe at the brand to boot. Why are you even here?

    How about they just give it to you for free... :s

    Why you have not been banned yet mystifies me.
