Hello Polk Enthusiasts!

Thank you very much for your patience. We are now ready to launch our Polk Slack Future Think Tank Online Community where we invite you to participate and share your insights and experiences with us. We will be asking a series of questions over the next 1-2 months and your feedback will help to impact future product innovation, design, and development of Polk’s products. The commitment on your side would be that you are engaged and contribute to the discussions and answer the questions each time one is asked. It’s primarily an opinion led project and something that can easily be done alongside your job or studies.

Our goal is to better understand and gain insights to improve Polk’s products to meet your future needs. More specifically, we’re also keen to understand your opinions relating to music, sound, and audio related topics.

We will be offering a 50% discount on Polk products as compensation for answering all of the questions. We’ll be sending you that link at the conclusion of the project.

Please see the link below to join the Slack Community. We’ll be posting our first question in the next couple of days so would encourage you to please get signed on to the Slack channel at your earliest convenience. We’ve got lots to talk about!



We will be writing our research reports as responses come in so it’s important that you respond within 2-3 days of our posting a question. Certainly, there’s some wiggle room, but ideally we’d like to see responses within that time frame.

Looking forward to getting to know you and all the insightful and interesting conversations we’ll have together over the next few months.

Very best from the Mole in a Minute Team,

    Not Slack, but I got this one welcoming me to The Atrium. Is it part of the same program? I hope so. I didn't sign up for The Atrium, and I could really use a win right now.


    WELCOME TO THE ATRIUM
    Polk Atrium SAT300 speakers will fill your patio space with great, high-fidelity sound.

    Better Speakers. Better Gatherings.

    Memorial Day is coming up and summer barbecues are right around the corner. The best way to make those special gatherings more fun is to add outdoor speakers like the Atrium SAT300 speakers—which can be either hung from the ceiling or planted in the ground. It’s high-fidelity listening, but outside.
    I disabled signatures.

    I am not going to confirm or deny anything at this time.

    Just be a contributing member and things will eventually come your way. If you just want cheap discounts and poof you're gone, that is not what this is all about. This forum is like a family here. We have get togethers and travel many miles to go to others members houses to partake in good times.

    Welcome aboard.

    I get it. I'll speak up more as the new kid. I have been involved with Audio for 40 years, including selling it in my 20's in Los Angeles.

    Also, I live in Seattle. Do the Polk events that you mention where chat members participate ever make it to the Pacific Northwest? It would be good to hear the Polk Legends first-hand somewhere nearby if possible.

    Lastly, anyone from here belong to Seattle based meetups for Polk or Home Audio?

    I'm considering it. Doesn't look like Polk Audio will be there... bummer (when I looked at the site).

    I saw the posting in the GATHERINGS & SPECIAL EVENTS section from @mak99. If I do decide to go, I'll post there to let others know.
