    Well I agree. The more you post the more apparent it is what your agenda is. So who were you? What was, or is your other screen name/names? Hats off to you for keeping this thread going to 28 pages. You must be proud.
    Have fun.

    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

    Getting ready to put my MIT CVT Terminator 1 I/C's in the mix. Right now I'm running balanced Signal Analog II's. The CVT's are single ended so I'm looking forward to hearing how they change things. Balanced connections cancel much of the 2nd harmonics and going single ended will put that back in the mix.

    I've run single ended before with the new pre-amp but only for a couple week or so.

    Oh sudden change of heart.No Ben I even visited your site kept an open mind but this forum is nothing short of ridiculous.I have no other name ..have never been here before...I stumbled upon this site because I own Polk HT gear.I have had some pm's from other members that have told me about the bashing going on here for example the emotiv or something of the sort(moderately priced HT amp) not too sure of the name.The Sunfire debacle was another one, that was about the time I joined the forum ...same bashing and ugly words went down
    Time for some house cleaning with regards to Polk I would say:rolleyes:

    BL'oMe Seafire. You can tell them I said that too. ;)

    You are a disgrace to this forum and all things Polk. You have not one ounce of credibility, you contradict yourself many times, you are an obvious troll and an embarrassment to the Polk community. I'd just like to point out to you that the last person to attempt to do what you have done and are doing was banned.

    Well put. Polk isn't as dumb as he thinks. Just about anyone can see through this turkey. He reminds my of the sociopath with valve oil on his shirt;) He certainly has an agenda.
    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.

    where do people like heiney9 and treitz3 get off assuming these things and posting completey useless post like this!

    That's 'cause Tom(treitz3) is a horses ****. If you want to see useless posts, do a thread seach on lightman1. If you want more completly useless information, do search For Jesse(F1nut) and Ben(628705483322Ben.org) or whatever his name is. An open mind will be recieved better than that of a closed mind that speaks of what it doesn't fully comprehend.

    Anyone else for PIE?


    Why has every thread on here this last week or so turned into a huge ****/whine fest? Is it because I haven't been posting so much lately? Maybe the forums falling out of balance?:p

    Well Sh#t, Curt asked for a piece of pie. Anybody want a slice while I'm up?

    So let me get this straight? After 190 some posts and suffering a devastating loss to the home team, you decide then to read the forum rules? Do you want me to set up a conference call for you with HQ tomorrow? I'd love to listen in. That would probably be the best entertainment I'll have tomorrow!

    IMO, interconnects have more of an influence on sound than speaker cables. And depending on the component, power cords can have more of an influence on sound than speaker cables.

    Thank you.....

    Ok good point.Please remember what I said earlier...we dont all live in he USA and that type of cable at those prices...nearly impossible.Remember that some folks that buy this cable can't here past 15k or even less.Yes sure there are some that hear it all but they are defiantly the minority

    What do you mean you can't get them? There are these websites I've heard about before that allow people to buy things online...let me see if I can remember them...

    -searches-

    Ahh yes...I remember now. I think one of them is called http://www.ebay.com/

    There's another one too...it's pretty similar to that last site I listed. http://www.audiogon.com/
