    I'll hang uot the skyhook, Curt. Gimme your coordinates and wait for the fly-by.

    Coordinates? I don't know nothin bout no coordinates. Just google Dixon, IL for some directions...I'll be on top of Amcore Bank, which is the tallest building in town.

    To cap things off, I'll also jump from the plane and plummet through midair on the way there, and hijack a helicopter. I'll then fly to the get together and parachute into the backyard...in the grandest of styles.

    That's just how I roll.


    Everyone might want to park a few blocks away though...because that helicopter's gonna take some serious **** out on the way down.

    I don't have either, so not I.

    Is it too overstated to wear your Polk shirt or hat at the meet? :p

    Not me Al, all I got is my wimpy Monitor 70's and maybe the TSi 500's I should have on demo by then. Hey, that would be a good time for a kicka$$ side by side?

    To my knowledge, I'll be getting a pair of these cans in right before the meet, so I'll make sure to bring them with a headphones amp or two. :D

    RDO-194. The sda2 are blade-blade so I guess they cant be TL modded.

    that would be great if you can bring the SDA 2A's that I heard at your place... they sounded really good to me.

    How about the original poster of this thread.. he's been silent since this started to take off. anyone in contact with him?

    Update: I just got the TSi 500's today from Polk (demo) and I was thinking of bringing them with me. I asked Mark if that was ok, and am awaiting his response. Also I was thinking of bringing my Monitor 70's for a little A/B. Probably gonna bring my AVR, PS3, some Blu Ray's and maybe my sub. My question is, what are we going to have for screens? Am I bringing too much? Let me know what you guys think, I have a SUV so transporting it won't be an issue.

    Hey Jeff,
    leave some room in your SUV for the 225i wireless subwoofer. I want to bring it to Seattle with me and hand it off to you. I think it was suppose to go to you first... but some how ended up at my place first. If your SUV is to full let me know and we can do the exchange once we both return. either is fine.

    I want to have you over to hear the SDA's though at some point. ;)

    Does anyone have an extra/unused SACD player who's coming to the meet? It may be time for me to acquire one...

    Are you temting me to sell mine? I have actually considered it, since I don't have any SACDs, but it's nothing too special - Sony (non ES) 5-disc dvd/cd/sacd.

    Will do Al, I'll have plenty of room I'm sure. I look forward to meeting you, and we'll have to work out a date to get together so I can hear your SDA's.

    I am still planning on going, a few issues have arisen, but should hopefully be worked out by then. Also, is it cool if my wife tags along, she probably won't stay long, but she wants to meet some of the holigans I hang out here with, lol.
