Hey guys,
I look at the forum everyday but rarely post, You guys are fast with the replys. But you guys might like to hear about this.
I've owned Polk for the last 14 years and have a Polk HT and HS. I love them all. I am currently finishing my basement and have started looking for new stuff for the new home theater. I live in Salt Lake and do most my shopping at Broadway Music. They have great CS and same prices as CC. They carry Polk and RBH. They sold me my Ls90's and all my RT stuff. But guess what they have . LSi 's !!!!
I was like being 5 again in a candy store. Build Quality is great and from what I got to hear I'm impressed. While I was there I guy bought the floor models because the can't keep them in stock. So the fun ended.
The 25's were what I got to hear. The new tweeter sounds great and the mids remind me of the 55's but better. bass was great more tight than my 2000's.
So when the next shippment comes in I'm going back for sure. I now want to see all the line. Great job Polk!!!

    The sales guy I talked to said 6 pair in 5 days. I'm not sure how long they have had them or what else he has had.
    To say the least I'm going back soon. They Q's I have are building. They are selling for 3k a pair on the 25's I did ask that.

    Aaron,
    Thanks. It was cool to find my dealer with them. I hope you guys will start seeing them in your area.
    I can't wait to hear what the rest of the Polk faithful think.

    yes.. and i try not too go into the stereo shoppe that place gives me the serious buy bug. the cc employees here drive me bonkers, i will pop in there when the wife is out shopping and listen to them do there sales pitches and i just want to jump in and tell the people that this guy doesnt know what he is talking about...some times i get so frustrated i have to leave..
    the sound rooms are a joke !!!!
