How about the Brewers? The were swept in the NLCS last year by the Dodgers and it looks like they just might return the favor this year. They were down 4-0 and have now tied it up?

Do you know anyone on this forum with a soundbar?
Instead of bickering and finger-pointing, why don’t you HELP this CUSTOMER??

Do you know the answer? Do any of those who were banned or otherwise removed from the forum know the answer?

As a matter of fact, I DO know the answer - as I’m sure a few of the other “non-inclusive” members do as well.
Apparently you do NOT?

Looks like the new members are looking to close this place down.

How so? It's the old members trying to start issues, as usual. These members are also appear quite active on the new forum. They'll keep it going at least until the thread is removed. Rinse, repeat.
Why don't I tell someone how to remove the trim rings on Legends? I don't have Legends, or have any experience with the Legends. Same with soundbars. -

You could research it like I did…. That’s what a lot of us old “non-inclusive” members used to do. Now it’s up to you;-)“Human beings are born with different capacities. If they are free, they are not equal. And if they are equal, they are not free.”

FFS guys, both sides. Take a timeout and quit being keyboard commandos. Ryan has this place on a "test" now. Meaning greater scrutiny. If any of you wish to keep this place going, stop arguing and find something we can all appreciate.

Just trying to encourage the “new guard” to provide the customer service that many of us used to. Apparently, that’s not important any more.
You win Bill - I’m out. Good luck all…“Human beings are born with different capacities. If they are free, they are not equal. And if they are equal, they are not free.”

Well the Brew Crew completed the revenge sweep of the Dodgers. JoJo Romero gets the win again for the 2nd day in a row. Pretty-awesome.

I'm not trying to win, I'm trying to keep this place around for multiple reasons. My post wasn't directed at you, but at all the other arguments. -
@Ryan_Polk I will answer your question and address you. It seems as if this thread is going dowhill fast.
Whether it be on this thread or another, I will answer your question. You now see what this decision has caused. I can't help you there, but I will address it. Life right now is just getting in the way.

While I agree, what makes you think this forum is being "tested"? He didn't say that.
What's worries me is the lack of new products, as old products are discontinued after Samsung took over. Hopefully that changes. -

Ok, technically, he called it a transition period, but the meaning is the same. Based on recent actions, is this something you all want to test?

Guys, WTF? Go listen to some music and quit arguing before this entire place gets deleted and Polk puts its focus on Reddit.
With all due respect, the posts above this one by you, up to your previous post, I don't see any arguing going on, only a few observations. Sometimes emojis help, but we don't have many cool ones to choose from. -

I will raise my hand as someone who owns a Polk soundbar. It's a MagniFi Mini AX and I've been pretty happy with it.

I bought two Magnifi mini when first released. Both run a minimum 10 hrs s day. Never an issue with either.Since we don’t know where we are going we have to stick together in case someone gets there….Ken Kesey.

The forum isn't being tested for anyone who is wondering, but there is some directive to be more quick to respond to users who are cultivating an unfriendly environment on the forums here. This isn't any different from what you see on other brand forums though. This isn't a platform that is much more flexible or unruly like Reddit or 4chan.
As for products, I can't say anything specific but as is typical with Polk Audio, product cycles happen and old models are discontinued after some time. The cool thing with the Harman acquisition is that we as the Soundunited umbrella are still operating fairly independently under Harman. Samsung doesn't lean into Harman too heavily, and Harman allows us to work as we did before with their support and infrastructure.
As a personal note on that, I am actually relieved that we are under Harman since they are an actual audio company compared to our previous ownership, Masimo. I tend to have to make the distinction that while we are under Harman who is under Samsung, Samsung isn't directly tied to us in that way.
I'd akin it to Unilever (Dove, Axe, Ben & Jerry’s, Hellmann's, Lipton, Vaseline, etc.) They own the brands and have their own thing but the brands themselves still mainly operate independently with the support of the parent. It's why we aren't listed under https://www.harmanaudio.com/ it may change with time as we become more integrated but after the last year, we've really only worked with our direct sister companies that we always have under SoundUnited which is seen on our websites where we have some bundles with Denon.

That all said, there is something I want to note. The forums are looked at by others within Polk Audio and I'm on the side of keeping it up due to the wealth of information and community that has developed over the years. Even before I joined the company and entered this role some years after that, I was a fan of Polk Audio since I am from MD myself, I'd be a bit sad if the forums were closed down. It seems to be a yearly discussion on how the future of the forums will turn out these days and I try my best to make the argument to keep it up.

Thanks for the clarifications Ryan.

I've been hearing that LA tanked. They want to head into the winter being able to claim that small market teams are viable, and therefore, no salary cap is necessary. I have no idea how true that is, but it almost makes sense. I am now awaiting what Uncle Steve does this offseason, he's got the deepest pockets out there and a fan base salivating for a chip. But hey, congrats to the Brewers anyway, they can take comfort that they won't face Pete Alonso again.So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

I also thought this was becoming the new Polk site! I had a nosey, and once I saw the racist comments along with someone saying 'most of the cool members are here except the pronouns', I thought, 'No thanks.' Sorry, it's just how my mind works—I won't be venturing there.

At least over there you can pay $8 per month to remove advertising, whereas here, you can’t get advertising even if you want it.

I haven't seen a single ad over there. Maybe because I'm using uBlock Origin on all my browsers.

IMO, I think what a few here are trying to establish is what your former username was? If it was public before why is it a big secret now? I was going to PM you that but your profile is private...which is fine. -

As is yours and mine. I was going to PM you my 99% sure guess, but I guess since we are all so paranoid, it will remain a secret.
