Now that I am a Polk GURU, I don't want anyone arguing with me. If I say something is so, than that is it. Especially you lower ranking personnel. So, in the future if you need advice I'm here. Want to know what the best CD Player is?..ask me. Want to know if cables make a difference? ask me. Worried that your system isn't worthy? ask me.

That is all, carry on. :D

    How do you feel about PIE!!!
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    I'm not in timeout yet beauches, so let me ask the all knowing, all powerful guru a simple question.

    In three minutes or less, how long did it take to conceive and complete Boston's Third Stage album. No cheating or goggling either. A Polk GURU should know this off the top of his head right?

    This is a "BONUS" question, and not one covered in the package you selected sir. You'll need to upgrade for a correct answer.
