    Dude, seriously, just do some looking.

    All the info you need:

    EX402a: http://www.polkaudio.com/caraudio/products/ex402a/

    EX502a: http://www.polkaudio.com/caraudio/products/ex502a/

    Look farther than your nose. Nobody wants to hold your hand when the info you are looking for is readily available on the Polk Audio website.

    As far as year of manufacturer, mid '90's.

    Why is the history of Polk Audio important? There is no one single comprehensive source of history. But if you want to know more about the history of Polk Audio, start asking questions in the home audio side where it will get more traffic from more people knowledgeable on the subject. You can always try a Google search on the Polk Audio history too. It's a wonderful tool this Internet thing if you actually use it instead of asking questions that you can easily find the answers to and waiting and waiting for someone else to do your leg work for you.

    You'll find that the members are most helpful, and seem to enjoy being helpful, as I have found out. I have yet to find any that are egocentric, actually I'd have to say quite the opposite is true.

    Just hang out and be yourself.

    WTF?

    Who asked you to fight anyone? Who asked anyone to fight?

    Yeah, but I'M the one that needs to grow up. Sure, buddy. :rolleyes:


    And what point did you have anyway? You said you have "peakers" and wanted info on them but you couldn't describe them nor did you have serial numbers. Then you seemed to be agitated that no one responded with help. Am I missing something here?

    I gave you the info you needed with a very intolerant attitude towards your laziness because of your intolerant attitude towards the fact that no one responded to your impossibly vague statement.

    Moral of the story? Stop being a tool and use the search function. It took me all of 5 minutes to get the info you wanted, it might have taken you 10 because you didn't know where to look. Wasn't hard though, right there at the top of the page. Funny thing is, it would have taken you, yourself, 10 minutes to get the info you wanted but you'd rather sit around and wait for what, 12 days? Then get incensed that no one helped you? Sorry, all of us were not aware of how special you are. :rolleyes:

    But I'm glad you think your time is to valuable to waste searching for what you want to know when you could easily throw tantrums on a forum until someone gives you want you want. Must be nice.

    Umm...Clarion is Japanese, always has been, since like 1940. I thought they were German for a while because of the extensive affiliation with Volkswagen and Bosch but they are Japanese.

    Alright tough guy, let's play.

    Korea might be where Clarion manufactures stuff but Clarion is, without a doubt, a Japanese company.

    Wrong.

    For your clarification I will now reference YOUR post:

    (BTW, that's some stellar use of the English language right there!)

    You stated that it is a "Korean brand speaker". It is not. I have shown without a shadow of a doubt that Clarion is in fact a Japanese brand speaker.


    Thanks for playing.

    Wanna try again?
