I know Micah was responsible for the last one but just because he isn't around doesn't mean it couldn't happen again.

    It's not that far from BIW. Just jump on a commuter flight, land in BIW, grab a taxi to the office. When done, grab another taxi to airport and get back on another commuter flight and fly home!

    I really doubt it but it doesn't matter. Going to Polk Audio HQ with Club Polk...it's like....going to Lockheed and touring the Skunk Works! Alcohol only inhibits your ability to appreciate it all!

    Besides, you'll usually get to meet some the most influential people in audio history and from the pictures of the last one, Matthew Polk himself did not miss the chance to hang with some of the goobers from Club Polk and talk shop! If I am not mistaken, there was a table setup where equipment, brochures, clothing and whatever else you had could be placed to get signed by Matthew Polk and his band of merry men!

    Between you and me, I heard doro got Matt to sign his boob!

    You mean BWI? ;) If you guys want a bigger airport, Dulles (Washington DC area) is about an hour away depending on the beltway traffic. You might want to get together and rent a car with other people though since its about 50-60 miles away!

    Doro, who are you talking to at Polk? I would like to put my 2 cents in since the RnD area is the coolest part of the building. Its where the magic happens :)

    C'mon! We know where the coolest part of the building is. I don't think standing around watching engineers talk about cone colors is that exciting. I'll let everyone try out the MIG welder in the back.:)

    You guys have your own version of "Pimp My Ride" going on back there? What can ya do with my Explorer? Maybe the Mustang would be a better choice to pimp out.

    By the way, Doro is not allowed back to Polk HQ's for a tour. He was caught at the last one stuffing sandwiches and cookies in his pockets.
