    Oh, noes.
    It's not just us (i.e., Polk)
    It's like a virus. It's spreading.

    Of course, now the question is whether those big Mac amplifiers need airholes?

    The important thing to remember is that
    Black
    Paint
    Matters

    I think the burning question now is: does Samsung - Harman have a supply chain for black paint*, and if so, will they share the SKU so that we can order some? Maybe with a small discount for our loyalty to Polk?

    8 ga Powerline: LR woofers, inside* & out
    *soldered **Rob the Man (Xschop)

    LR: Tri-amped RTi A7 w/Rotels*. Woofers - 980BX; Tweets & Mids - RB981*
    Ctr Ch: Rotel RB981* -> Bi-amped CSi A6
    Surrounds: Rotel 981* -> AR 12 ga -> RTi A3
    *all connected w/Premiere ICs
    5 Subs: Sunfire True SW Signature -> LFE & Ctr Ch; 4 Audio Pro Evidence @ the “Corners”

    11 years this past June -- and still going strong.
    I mention this because I just referenced this thread over at Hifihaven.

    Paint may be the next big thing!
