    In! I've had a full 7.1 system of 25's, 9's, F/X's and an LSiC.

    This has been whittled down to a 5.1 of 9's, LSiC and LC60i's.

    Al, I am interested to be part of this study. I have or had all LSi's with the exception of LSi25. Currently have 15/9/Fx/C.

    Thanks.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Count me in too. I'm running LSi15s and 7s in my HT rig. I started with the R series last year, upgraded to RTi and finally hit the holy grail with the LSi's this month. I'm now a Polkster for life and would love to be a part of this :)

    Do you own LSi or a comparable speaker? Do you have interest in or ideas about the next generation?

    My HT - Music environment is 4 LSi15s, LSiC, and PSW1000. I just finished treating my HT room with Auralex Studiofoam Pyramids and it has tremendously improved the sound of the LSis.

    Now I find out that I am going to have to upgrade my speakers in the future. Oh, the inhumanity. Count me in.

    Got my first pair of LSi15 in 2003. I've had 2 pairs of LSi9 and an LSiC since then, currently have LSi9 as my mains in my living room/main room.

    I'm down. Sounds awesome.

    Kab, I would love the opportunity to participate. I don't have any LSi's though. If that disqualifies me, then please disregard. What I do have is Tyler Acoustic's Taylos 7u's and Focal 807v's FYI.

    I'd like to give praise for Polk even offering the chance for consumers to actively participate in the development of a lineup not even produced yet. That speaks loudly that Polk cares about what the consumer wants.

    I do not own any LSi's. I did own a LSiC for about 12 hours. Took it back for a CSi5 because it sounded better with my RTi10's. I have heard the LSi's but never with the right power to them. I currently own SDA 2B's w/ 4.1 TL mod, stock 1C, RTA 11t's, RTA 8TL, and will pick up a pair of Monitor 7's this weekend. KAB if you think that I can be of assistance I am more than happy to give my opinion. I am like a clean slate LSi wise.

    And Mark. I think the LSi was a model of the Chevy Malibu several years or more ago.:D

    I'm interested.

    I currently have LSi9's and LSi15's in my home theater. I have had LSi7's in my home theater and in my office rigs.

    If enough SDA cultists get involved, maybe we can steer LSi in the right direction.;):)

    Any mention of SDA is grounds for immediate rejection :)

    My thoughts exactly :D
    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

    Count me in.....

    I have LSi 15's, LSic and LSi7's in a home theater. (main system in signature)

    I have also demo'ed LSi9's (to large for rears and wanted towers for fronts) and LSi25's (really not that much of a fan of the powered tower - went with 15's instead.)

    I have Polk Monitor 10's in a separate 2 channel system (swap the speakers back and forth), but don't use them often. Ever since I grew those 3 extra ears 2 speakers just isn't enough.

    Michael
    Mains.............Polk LSi15 (Cherry)
    Center............Polk LSiC (Crossover upgraded)
    Surrounds.......Polk LSi7 (Gloss Black - wood sides removed and crossovers upgraded)
    Subwoofers.....SVS 25-31 CS+ and PC+ (both 20hz tune)
    Pre\Pro...........NAD T163 (Modded with LM4562 opamps)
    Amplifier.........Cinepro 3k6 (6-channel, 500wpc@4ohms)

    I would very much appreciate the chance to participate in this study. I'm using seven Polk LSi speakers in my 7.1ch home theater, and have owned LSi speakers for a while now. Count me in as an absolutely huge fan of these speakers.

    Anything I can do to help with the development of the next-gen LSi's is time well spent! :)

    I'd be interested as well. I'm the owner of a couple setups:
    Polk RTi10/CSi5/RTi6 surround
    Polk R50/R150/CSi3 surround
    Definitive BP20s surround
    Carver AL3+ Stereo
    (Not all in the same home LOL)

    I'm considering picking up a pair of LSis...so I'm a potential customer for your new LSis as well.

    I'm in.

    I own the LSi15's, LSiC, LSiFX's, LSi7's, SDA SRS 2's, and RTi6's, and if you want to go down the car road, then I've got SR5250's and an SR124 sub with Polk amps. I've previously owned RTi12's, RTi8's, RTi70's, their center/surround counterparts, 2 PSW505's, a PSW650, and the RM7600 over the years. I have also sold Polk speakers at retail for the last seven years (American TV).
