Looks like LSiM series speakers are all 50% off (with code from Polk). Now's the time to buy if you've been considering them!

    ... But my wife always tells me how much she SAVED... not how much she spent. Just buy a nice 5 channel setup. When she asks how much you spent, tell her not to worry... just that you saved $3600! >:)

    which means you're now entitled to a pair of speakers? or four.
    I disabled signatures.

    @dromonds - I highly doubt I'll use my code. If I don't, and you need it (and don't get an email from Polk), let me know!

    I'm not greedy, 2 would be fine.
    Truth be told, I have a better chance of growing new hair which we all know is NOT going to happen.. :o

    Bought one LSiM 703 on Ebay a while back that had a defective tweeter. Fixed it and now I have been waiting for something like this to grab another one. Woohoo!

    Sucks though; I have too many speakers that I am going to need to downsize. Stupid first world problems.

    Got my "last" LSiM - a second 706c. :) Will have a CS1000p up for grabs when it is replaced.

    I've already used my code, but if anyone has one they don't plan to use, you might decide to send it to btmower, in case he wants to add a few LSiM surrounds to the 707s he just purchased. You gotta feel for someone that just spent $4000 on those, a week before F&F comes out.

    Do we know if the codes are unique as in 1 per person? I'm not using mine, would be happy to pass it on...

    Scubalab, or anyone else not using your code: This happened last time also, I looked and I didn't get an email, even though I should be on their list and have purchased from F&F in the past, so I would appreciate if anyone is not using their code I would gratefully accept your code. Thanks..

    Not using mine due to living in Canada. Any one need it then let me know.

    Wouldn't mind a pair of 703's for the garage :smiley:

    I can't use mine either due to being in Canada. Was hoping they would allow us Canucks to use it, was looking at the 702 to finish of the LSiM setup.

    This is awesome news, I'm hearing ya' Mikey, those 703's would be a sweet pair for the computer desk.

    Looks like Ken already helped you out! Hopefully his code works for you.

    Unfortunately (or fortunately... depending on how you look at it), I'm not in the market for new speakers for our HT. I may have to come up with some money to fix my AVR (Anthem MRX-500) that stopped sending video out via the HDMI out... :(

    So, if anyone needs a code, let me know.

    It appears I will not be using my code. If it's not against any Polk policy, I will gladly share mine if needed..

    Cmon, you know you wanna... just sell me some of your SDA's, RTA's, and maybe a couple crown amps and you'd have enough :smile::wink:

    Time to jump on some LSiM's! My room is 13' x 20' with a 3 ft opening into the foyer & a 5' opening into the dining room, 8 ft ceilings. 705's & a 706C look to be the way to go. All driven by an Aragon 8008x3. Now to choose a color. Been searching the forum for real world photos. Found a few. Can anyone point me to others?

    I have a bunch of my 705 in the for sale section. They are cherry.

    Also looking to pick up a set with the 705's and deciding on color. I presume Best Buy's, even the Magnolia section, doesn't have LSiMs on display?
