    I'd guess they won't spin up a new line until the economy turns around unless it's already built and they are carrying inventory.

    Combo rig:

    Onkyo NR1007 pre-pro, Carver TFM 45(fronts), Carver TFM 35 (surrounds)
    SDA 1C, CS400i, SDA 2B
    PB13Ultra RO
    BW Silvers
    Oppo BDP-83SE

    Ditto. It wouldn't make since otherwise even though they probably already have some new ones planned out.

    Cool! Who knew you could make a tweeter out of a fried egg? And that "change slot" port at the bottom is wild. Leave it to Polk!

    That looks like one that I made when I was a kid. I used the (nearly) the best components that RS had to offer and was darn proud of it! Of course they sounded great to me, though I was likely the only one except for my mom, but you know moms are like that and love all their kids crafts and, of course, saves them in a box buried in a closet which is where those speakers are today and she asks me if I want them and I say no way but she keeps them anyway.... you know what I'm sayin', moms are like that.
