    Yet another lesson learned for those that refuse to call first.

    It's not that we don't feel for him, because we do. It's just that we're mean-spirited and quite drunk, as a rule.

    I must sympathize with DAlba. I drove nearly 250 miles round trip, from east of Sacramento to Menlo Park, in the south Bay Area. I wanted to see and hear the new LSi-15's.

    The authorized dealer's address, as listed on www.polkaudio.com, turned out to be...huh?...his apartment?? I tried calling three times:

    (1) the Friday afternoon before going (the call wasn't returned),

    (2) Saturday morning before leaving to visit, and

    (3) just after I arrived (where I was only slightly dismayed to find no one at "the business address").

    In his defense, if you will, he did return call #2 and apologize for all the confusion. Unfortunately, it was after I'd already left Sacramento enroute to Menlo Park.... Ah, well. :(

    The website's address was fixed by Monday morning, after I emailed the webmaster.

    Total cost: About 9 gallons of gas, $5 in bridge tolls, and $.50 for the phone call in Menlo Park.

    Moral: Call, yes. But also...TALK with a LIVE PERSON! lol ;)

    Yes, I know. I felt like an **** while I was calling them from the parking lot only to get the "number is disconnected" message.

    I am from Baton Rouge.
