Those that attended, still have the option of demoing a Surroundbar in house. I have it right now - who wants it next? I plan to get it to the next member, in the next couple of days so SPEAK up.

If there is a formal list already, I'm not privy to it, so let me know.

Cheers,
Russ

    I'd like a chance to demo it too. I think it would work great for my parents but I don't have the cash to pay Crutchfield the money to get it and see if it fits thier space well enough.

    It's sitting by the front door, I'll ship it as soon as I get back from San Diego - I got side tracked with the whole Charlie thing, but things are starting to settle down a little finally.

    Just a quick update, I got this speaker Friday last week, have it hooked up and using it for all our TV viewing, both the regular programs and any DVD viewing. I want to give some more listening through the weekend and will pack it up for the next person. According to the list above that would be Ohskigod. Correct me if I am wrong.

    Not to be a creep, but this is a 'bonus' to those who attended Polkfest in Maryland, not just an open demo.
