    So Polk needs to use babe's to sell the car audio stuff, because we all know that car audio is not 'real' audio, thus the girlies.

    Micah,

    Now there is something that might sell in the Polk store. A poster with the Polk logo the ladies are wearing prominently displayed.

    Shack, that's a great idea. You know, the reaction you guys are having to these very tame pix of some car show -- where we have "booth babes," or, "talent" as they prefer to be called -- is really interesting.

    First, car audio is not "not real audio." Some of the stuff these guys put in their cars these days rivals anything you could possibly do in your home: 5.1 systems with monitors and stuff. It's real! And usually, this is a kid's first exposure to "real audio," by which I assume you mean serious home audio. So Polk needs to be a player in this market. Especially since you loyal "real Polk Audio" fans are getting so old you are turned on by FULLY CLOTHED semi-attractive women. We need new meat. Car audio is where the new meat comes from. It's a dynamic, youthful marketplace, and we have to make motions as if we too are a dynamic youthful company, ahem. So we go with "booth babes." They work it. It's an interesting paradox. And anyway, car audio -- as you can see -- is a lot more fun!

    I'd love to get a poster of the girls with the Polk logo on em. But I don't know if we've graduated to that level yet.

    I think the white car in the first pic was at Polk HQ on my visit. Admittedly, I don't care a hoot about car audio, in fact, in my truck I just have the stock AM/FM radio but I have to admit the cool factor was off the scale. The lovely Wendi was really impressed, enough so that SHE wants some of that cool stuff in the Wendimobile.

    I'll settle for the broads.
