    I too am willing to give my code to another well established Polkie to use. It is to difficult for me to even think about replacing fully modded 1.2TL's at this point, especially as I have built my listening room specifically for them.

    The LSi/M center would be a very wise choice Max. You will not be disappointed.

    I may not have room for the 706c so I may not be able to get it, although I heard it sounds great. Does anyone know if the 704c would be a step up from the LSiC?

    I went from the LsiC to the 704c and I think it is worth the upgrade. However, match like with like. If you have Lsi's then stick to LsiC. If you have LsiM then go to 704c. Just my 2 cents.

    She's getting the 3000's and I'm going to setup a 2-channel system. It's going to take awhile but couldn't pass up the 703 deal. In the mean time I'll hook these up to break in in my HT and see how the sound.

    That's what I am worried about. My LSi9's are modded and I am not ready to upgrade all the speakers at this point. Looks like I'll just try headphones then. Thanks.

    Are there really people who aren't satisfied with a 50% off coupon!?!?! I'll be purchasing SOMETHING prior to Friday. Another set of cans if nothing else, as that's too good of a deal to pass up. Thanks Ken and Polk for making this available to us; hell of a deal!

    Finally settled on the UltraFocus 8000 cans. Will be very nice for the (very little) flying I do, and will serve double duty at home replacing my older (15-20 year-old) Sennheiser's that have lost nearly all the top padding to dry rot and have a loose connection on one side. Love them, but it's time...

    Thanks Ken and Polk! This was a very nice offer, greatly appreciated. Got me to buy something I normally would not have at this time.

    Happy Holidays!
