    Thank you for the kind words. Although Ken did not frequent the forum here, he was an avid audiophile and Polk lover. Ken ran his 1.2TLs quad amped with 4 Parasound HCA-1500s. He was the person who turned me on to Polk and SDA. We lost his son, Roger, less than two years ago. It's just a tragedy. Ken wasn't a religious man, but if you are please remember his daughter, Kerry, in your prayers.

    So sorry for your loss. Prayers sent to all who knew and loved him.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    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
