    Thanks to all who put up with my noob-ness and helped me learn. Thanks also to Polk Audio for 1) having great products for their price, 2) setting up this forum that has become a great user community.

    i'd like to thank you dave, for allowing me to spank your **** alot in the past, online. ALOT! :eek:

    all i can thank you for demi is being yourself which is just too cool.

    i also got alot of help on the sda purchase along with the accompanying amp from h9, hearingimpaired, F1nut, ben90210 (can't memorize the digits, sorry bennie), russ (hoosier), dark knight, george daniel and so many others i may have forgotten.

    ricardo (htrookie back then) as i seem to have followed in MANY of his footsteps. well, up until he started dropping major coin on high-dollar audio gear.:mad:

    steveinaz and I-SIG for the past karma of the harmony 659 which is still in use and for the good time at our mini polkfest at steve's and the folks i met there. fun time. miss you all.

But seriously thanks to all you Polkies who turned me onto SDA's and especially to Geoff in Seattle for giving me a spectacular deal on my fully modded and totally refinished 1c's.

    I'm going to thank everyone who has replied to my threads and for those who has hooked up me up with their selling equipment.

    I really appreciate the patience and time people put in these forums. I'm sure the experienced people here have replied to threads with the same answer, but with a different person who asked the question. That's what brings me back, because no matter what question it is, someone is here to answer it thoroughly. People here don't get annoyed and say "do a search on the forum, it's already been answered."

    Lastly, the person I haven't met yet, but soon hopefully in the near future is Freddy. (Kawiz9r) -- He has helped me tremendously, devoting his time to explain things that sometimes I don't even get still. He's also a bad influence because I've spent atleast $1500 for "upgrading" -- (bought the Emotiva, SVS PB-12 Sub, SC Interconnects/Speaker wires). Freddy is a great guy who gives great, precise advice.

    Thanks :)

    PS: I'll probably need you later tonight to make sure I'm hooking everything up right ;)

    I have to throw a shout-out to Wes (I-SIG) as well. He's always willing to cart his stuff down to my place for audition. Wes has a heck of an ear, and I trust his opinions on equipment.
