    Sweet. After hearing the surround bar and this sub at Polk HQ's, I'm excited to hear these together. One can only imagine great things to come from the combo based upon what I heard at Polk HQ...... :eek:

    Steve(DJ) - You should have an email containing labels for shipment to Tom(Treitz). Let me know if you encounter any problems.

    I have a gift for you, since you've been SUPER patient during this whole process....my apologies for it dragging out so long. Tom- You don't get squat....but some speakers.

    What? No naked pictures of you? I'm so depressed.

    No Christmas card for you.

    I just spoke with Tom, he rules, and these are heading down to Tampa for the Polk gathering. I wish I could send you a bigger pair Caligula but I'm strapped for resources right now. You're also getting an Instant Home Theater and PSWi225 to play with....be gentle.

    I'm having issues with printing the daggum shipping labels. They should be shipped today. Enjoy!
