I met a local Polkie Analog97. Hearingimpaired has been trying to hook us up for months since we live about five miles apart and both of us own the big Polks.
We met at Di-Pole Dan's place to blast his Platinum MK IV's and his three sub woofers in his magnificent 6.3 setup. Carvers, Maggies, Sunfire and Velodyne were the flavor of the day. As was some nice vintage and new vinyl. Dan brought out the moldy cheese, California red wine, the only thing we were missing was the Meerschaum pipes, fancy tobacco,;) ascots and of course Jesse:D Fly Boy Jay was also there, Michael Hunt had to bow out at the last minute. We'll catch next time.
It was nice to meet you Larry, I hope we can get together again soon. Larry's first class all the way!!!! I'm questionable as many of you know.:D

Had I only known......
Always great when Polkies get together, it's a big part of what this place is all about.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

Mike lurks these Forums and get's a kick out of you guys making jokes about him. After 50 years he has heard it all.
