    I'll bet he even has a compass.

    Also, as a content update:

    Leonard Gibbs, the gentleman that I posted about earlier is a definate 'IN' for Polkfest. He has offered to give a mini-seminar on recording/acoustics...whatever for us. SUPER interesting guy.

    Ahhh, the SDA couch and glasses, yes, brett sitting so properly, arms and legs crossed, damm, I never noticed that Mark is kind of shooting the beaver in that shot while whispering the line Stuck in the Middle with you, Russ working the any warm port in a storm theory, and oh my what a handsome devil on the far right.

    The only question, was Al thinking, What in the World are these **** doing and where is Polk Paul he has been missing for an hour!!!

    Actually, Al's comment shortly after that shot was, "Why did we ever stop making these (SDA SRS 2.3TL)!?!

    ...brett sitting so properly, arms and legs crossed...
    It called "nirvana". Not an easy thing to achieve in that crowd, formerly dubbed the "SDA Bro's"...

    If you remember, brett's only prior, big SDA experience was with a pair of clearly eff'd up SRS's in the Phoenix area and so he had no appreciation for what all the SDA hubbub was about.

    Either that or he was pouting 'cause Mark's a kiss and tell kinda guy...

    Pfffft....average technology....at least according to someone.... Didn't they recommend to get your real hi-fi on?
    Now all that is left, post PF '06, is to get you some real speakers in there.

    2.3tl's.

    Since then, well, they are now in the smaller mancave. Have upgraded the tweeters, spiked them properly to the floor and the back end gear is MUCH improved.
