    Like I said above, I'm not further defending my previous posts.
    To clarify, meaning you've seen the error in your ways, or you've just been beat down so far you give up and are writing from the fetal position in the corner of dark closet?

    I've FedEx'd a 12-pack of Snickerses to you, btw.
    Should be back to your usual fun self in no time.

    Guys - I explained to @chrispyfur that CP isn't the same as hanging out in the driveway having beer with buddies, sparring in hyperbolic speech about which car is baddest assest, with no backup. I conveyed that you guys are all a-holes, and will call that out in a heartbeat, and bury anyone who wanders in to try it.

    This is not a place to have fun. It's serious, and facts and experience only.

    I have a lot of respect for the experience you guys have which I currently do not. I hope in time I'll get there.

    I didn't mean to sound argumentative or aggressive. Sorry that it came across that way.

    @msg my closet has a light in it, that makes it better right?

    Yes you did. You spend much of your time here blowing smoke out of your keister, and when you get called out, you backpedal faster than Lance Armstrong.

    @nooshinjohn are you being serious? I can't tell. I've done no such thing. I've gotten along well with everyone in the forum until this thread.

    Are you confusing me with the other Chris account or have I done some sort of wrong in other posts that I'm simply not aware of?

    OFFS…..

    Value is relative….so whining about if something is worth a certain price really kinda comes down to a personal choice

    As to what is NOT relative:

    A/B tests are about as worthwhile as Rosie O’Donnell as a ‘visual aide’

    Andrew Robinson is a hack (and his wife is straight up annoying)

    Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself

    Buy ‘em. Don’t buy ‘em ….it’s all rock and roll to me.

    That's a stretch... it was just an odd coincidence that he killed himself as soon as the cameras went off and a van pulled up.

    You know, as coincidental as someone leaving an arson scene with a canister of gas and a lighter.

    It's a conspiracy theory, my opinion says so!

    Interesting. Back to the original topic, I’d happily spend that extra on crossovers that are that significantly upgraded. High quality crossover components are not cheap. I’d love to get my ears on the R200AEs someday.

    I had to do some digging to figure out what a PFB was, but I found some pretty funny old threads.

    I've never owned a Porsche and I don't wear skinny jeans!

    Lol, stop that, no he's not. Dude had a bad day, and, with some strong opinions and in a state of delirium with notion of blowing off steam in camaradic banter, he mistakenly stumbled into this den of you we hyenas, who showed no mercy and gave no quarter after he voiced those globally incorrect perspectives. I suspect likely due to low blood sugar or missing his lunch of dinosaur nuggets and smiley potatoes.


    Oh, and side note, I received a messidge from @chrispyfur saying - and I swear, I'm not making this up, you guys know me :

    "Any Polk soundbar will trounce all Polk speakers, and easily outlast them in reliability. Even the Legends, Reserves, and especially modded vintage SDAs. The RTA15TLs are on par with the soundbars, though. My internet will be out for a day or two, would you post this to the forum for me, please?"
