    In Please.

    I love Polk because when I come home from a stressful day I can listen to my LSIs and all my troubles fade away..at least for a little while.

    I love Polk for many of the same reasons that have already been mentioned, but I will add that the SDAs are the only speaker that I'm actually drawn to whenever I enter my house. Also, the founder and owner of Polk cares about his consumers, unlike Polk's main competitors(no names need be metioned), and it shows throughout the company. Excellent customer service and excellent products that meet many levels of audio wants or needs with outstanding value.

    In please :)

    In please :)

    I have always considered Polk speakers to be an outstanding value. I have had my RTA-11's for almost 20 years now. I bought them new and took care of them their whole life. They have given me absolutely no trouble and still sound excellent today. I also am comforted by the fact that Polk Audio is a top notch company that cares about it's customers and has service and expertise that is 2nd to no one. My next pair of new speakers will most likely be Polk Audio because it's a name and product I know I can trust. One day I will get my SDA on :D .

    Chance of new cables to hook up my polks?? Sure... In please.

    I love polk for a few reasons. I like how they provide quality products for all different budgets (except really really high ones), even their old technology sounds great and their LSi line is great. Aside from the products they provide amazing customer service and really come accross as a generous and friendly company. The forum is cool too ;)

    In.

    What I love about polk is the fact that they offer great products for anyone at any stage of the game to get involved. That and the fact that customer service is so willing to help you figure out any problems and assist you in any way they can.

    First off, I am NOT in... I'm already shooting for one cable karma, dont' want to screw it over with this one :p

    However, what I love about Polk is that they make speakers for people who can't afford to pay for the name on the front of the speakers. And they manage to do it and pull off a great sounding product at the same time. Oh, and plus they care about their customers, give us free stuff, while still staying in business! That's not so easy to do....
    Ludicrous gibs!

    Please count me in. I love Polk because they are great speakers. But, I continue to own Polk speakers because of this forum and the crazy SOB's that frequent here!

    I love Polk because they have given me great sound quality for nearly 20 years for my car audio (db), 2 channel (SDA), and home theater (RTi). I'm known throughout my family as the Polk dude and of course they just love my hand-me-downs.

    In please.

    I know i don't have 100 posts but i just want to share my experience with the forum. The 1st time i heard a cd it was thru a set of polk speakers.
    This was back 1984. I was 15 at that time.
    The 1st cd i ever heard was Jean Michel Jarre's equinoxe.
    I was amazed at how 3 dimentional and lifelike this recording sounded thru polk speakers.
    It was as if this recording was being played in front of me live.
    From then on, i fell in love with audio equiptment specifically with speakers.
    Years later when i heard the sda srs 1.2tl for the 1st time, i had the same experience.
    i fell in love with ths sda effect. Now i own a few sda speakers including the monitor series that i heard back in 1984.

    The SRT SEISMIC System:
    Four main satellite speakers, six powered subs, two dedicated for LFE channel, two center speakers for over/under screen placement and three Control Centers. Amaze your friends, terrorize your neighbors, seize the audio bragging rights for your state. Go ahead, buy it; you only go around once.
