Order new Polks Tonight

Options
Thanks to everyone for your input--I ordered a pair of S60's.
With the tech built into them and after talking to customer support,
I thought if I'm gonna buy the New Signature Series--Go for the Maximum.
Can't wait to get that Big Polk Sound in the house.

Sony BDP S-590
Mains Signature S60
Center Signature S55
Surrounds Polk RTi-4

    I hope UPS doesn't destroy the boxes or damage these during shipment.
    They can be pretty rough.
    Yes, I can do a review, I should be getting them Monday or Tuesday.

    I hope UPS doesn't destroy the boxes or damage these during shipment.

    Yes, I can do a review, I should be getting them Monday or Tuesday.

    Find the UPS hub they will be delivered to before shipping to your house. Call them or go there with the tracking in the morning and ask them to hold your boxes there. Most damage happens on the delivery truck. One guy loads it early in the morning. the driver then has to dig through packages all day. They are not nice with these.
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

    You can do this online. All you have to do is click the box (offered up on the package tracking screen) for them to hold for pickup and they will be held at your local UPS hub. I do this all the time when I have such a shipment.

    I must say, my s55's had 3 huge styrofoam blocks encasing them. So even if the box was indeed banged up, doesn't even come close to the speakers. If it makes ya feel better.

    I unpacked the one tower I got today and I have to say
    it is Very Nice. It's a few inches taller than my current speakers
    and just as deep. The finish on the Polks look better--more expensive.
    Everyone here at home is impressed and now we're waiting till Monday
    to wire these babies up. If they sound as good as they look, knowing Polk
    I'm sure they will---We'll be in business.

    It's a big state by standards. I have blood in Bradshaw and Jolo..........I know most of the roads.
