Thought I had better post so I can Join in on some of the fun, Have been checking the post out since Christmas,and started buying all the vintage polks I can find.I must say I am impressed with F-1 and Ben a great deal,anyway just wanting to get my first post in. Have bought a great deal of Polks in the last eight months.Would have posted sooner but my job takes me out of state a great deal and I dont get on line much when I am on the road.

Cheers TKFOH

    Curiosety. You mentioned mine, and F1's name in the first post. I was wondering if you were a blast from the past.
    Do you mean big speakers like these?

    BEN, this is not a blast from the past. I found the forum right around Christmas, when I found a pair of monitor 10s with peerless in a pawn shop. looked up the 10s on Google and it sent me here.So every chance I had I would read the forums on vintage speakers, and thats when I discoverd how much you and F-1s new about all the polk vintage stuff. Ben when I am in Atlanta I will be doing a concert, I am a live sound engeneer for Toby Keith, TKfoh {Toby Keith front of house} front of house is the mix and lighting booth or place out in the middel of the crowd. Ben I have the largest JBL line array in country music and carry more boxes than most of the biggest rock shows. I have been mixing since 86. WE are on tour right now till October. and will be in Atlanta on the 11th of Sept.

    Thats great, we can pick each others brain, my system tech is a time aline freak, one of the best in the country {his pay shows it} If you can get there early enough you can watch us aline and time delay a BIG Rig and you can hear the sound as we pull or tune it in line with the room and time with one another and deal with phasing issues.
