    I received as well. Definitely looks different this time. Says "up to 50% off" too. That can mean 10% off some stuff. I guess we'll know more on the 22nd.

    Got it this morning as well, but didn't even realize it was the F&F :open_mouth:

    The "up to 50%" in big red letters part overshadowed the "Friends and Family" part in my eyes! Hopefully it is similar to prior offerings...

    Got the e-mail too. Looks like the T50's are on the list. Might try a pair for the bedroom system if the price is right.

    bah. looks like I'm gonna be on hold for sebbenOcincos for a while longer.

    I was just reading a review on those T50's though. pretty well reviewed, but supposedly take a slight second seat to the Pioneer SP-FS52's? I don't know, still I like the idea of sealed with two passives in the T50, especially at this deal. The T50's are more efficient, too.
    I disabled signatures.
  • Yeah. Definitely looks different this time. Don't see the sub I was eyeing on the list so I may be safe. And I should be able to sleep without fear of pulling the trigger on the 707s after a late nite beer or 3. So I can stop reading the 705 vs 707 threads, sit back, and crank what I have. Best of luck for others.

    Check polks store on eBay for the 705or 707. Newer 705 owner here and it does well in my room.

    Am I missing something or is this NOT a "Friends & Family" sale? There's no code that I could find in either email I got, and it just looks like a general sale anyone can get to by just going directly to Polk's home page. Some prices are decent, but nothing to tempt an impulse buy :p

    Disappointing...

    hehe, could probably almost buy your own for not much more than what the shipping would cost to move them around :)

    yeah, just seemed like a regular sale to me
    to me, it's not a real F&F if it doesn't make you feel like you're about to ish yourself for what you're considering buying. that last F&F made me feel like I was snooping in my parents' closet for Christmas presents knowing that they could be home any minute.

  • Bummed that it wasn't the 50% site wide as well. I checked last year's and they ran it on Thanksgiving day in 2014. Maybe this is just a small sale before Thanksgiving? I'm just wishful thinking!

    Well the T50s were on sale at best buy today same price as the F&F. I went to best buy to get a couple of Samsung S6 galaxy edges for a penny each, can't beat that deal. To make a long story short, don't get me wrong I love Polk Audio see my signature but the T50s don't do a thing for me the Pioneer counterparts sounded better to me, the build quality of the pioneers reek of cheapness the Polks build quality being somewhat better but honestly, I would not buy either at sale price let alone full price. I was not impressed at all but don't let my opinions talk anyone out of them, for the price and for a starter HT setup they might appeal to some, just my .02.

    Thanks for your honesty gudnoyez, you probably have it right about the T50's being fine for a starter HT setup. To be fair, I've heard some really decent speakers sound disappointing at BB,lol.
