    Ahh, but I was so much older then,
    I'm younger than that now.

    Now...don't be pickin' on the youth. The only problem I see is....they think they have all the time in the world.

    They couldn't be more wrong. :)

    Time is flying Tony! Must buy as much gear as I can before I'm broke or die.

    Good observation Skip, one many have brought up in the past....advertising of the forum. Hopefully dealers such as yourself can bend the right ears. Seems to me anyway, we have enough youth here now and not just a bunch of old codgers whining about SDA's not coming back. :)

    This forum gained substantial traction with twenty-somethings 10 years ago. Why? They used to advertise the forum when you bought a new Polk product, regardless of price. It got our feet in the door. I've brought that fact up to Polk and I hope those little flyers make it back into the product literature again.
    Yup. I bought my first pair of Polk speakers in '04 (R30 floorstanding speakers) and that friendly little yellow piece of paper in the box encouraged me to join "Club Polk."

    FWIW, I'm 42.

    I agree with skip, Polk really attracted 20-somethings a few years ago. I started on this forum when I was 21 if I recall correctly.
