Ken was the kind of guy that could make miracles happen back in the day. He’d send the occasional freebie, dig through somebody’s desk drawer to find an odd part, and he was just always a straight up good guy. I’ve been around here a while and he helped me with my RT16/12/CS350LS system, my LSi system, and I’m super bummed that he’s no longer here to chat about my LSiM system that I’m knocking together.

Sucks getting old. Godspeed and I hope Ken is doing well! He’s a good egg.

    He is still around. He retired from Polk and along with retirement, his moderator account was retired as well.

    He is still the Ken we knew and loved, but his moniker is now @SeleniumFalcon and his sense of humor has gotten better. I guess that's pne perk of.being retired...

    Hello Jason,
    Thank you for the kind words. I'm kind of like the old war horse that still twitches his ears when he hears a bugle. It looks like you're enjoying an excellent system, the three "Ps", Polk, Parasound and Pioneer Elite.
    Cheers, Ken

    umm...
