I am putting out a feeler to see if there is any interest in a Midwest Polk get together. I live in central Indiana and would love to help set up such a meet in there is some interest...

I would definitely be interested in this.

I'm just afraid at the impact it would have on my wallet. ;)

I live in Indianapolis, so anywhere within a 4-5 hour drive is aok by me.

What about Chicago? Is that considered Midwest? I don't know because I'm an Eastern Seaboard guy!

Perhaps if the timing is right. I'd do PF '09 before Indy if I had to choose. We do a mini-fest every couple of months here in Rockford, IL and anyone is welcome. Indy is a hike to IL for just the day, and I swear a couple of us are going to Ohio to visit with Ricardo and his system before summer's end.

rockford sounds good, when do you guys get together next?
I am also good for my home here in lafayette. It is on the small side but if the gathering is ten people or so it will work out ok.

I'm probably not good for next weekend, or the 27th. Picking up a new car next weekend and working out some little bugs with it, and the 27th i'm driving down to louisville to get another car dyno tuned.

The 20th sounds good to me, though.

You should stop by....I,m about two minutes off the highway on your way to louisville.

PM me if your interested...

I will probably do that, actually. I need a kick in the ass to spend more money on my setup. ;)

I have a date set of Saturday, June 27th for a Rockford Audio Society get together at my place. I am unable to host a large get together at this time. Due to work and parent care issues, it will only be a one day thing with ~10-12 people. I am doing a head count of Rockford Audio Society members that will attend. I am located near I80/I55, West of Joliet, IL.

So far, Noel, John, messiah and concealer have expressed interest. It would be mostly two channel with my stuff, Polk SDA CRS+, Monitor 7's with Peerless tweets, and who knows what else. Most times we have more gear than we can get to in a day. Vinyl and digital are both enjoyed and respected here. The surround setup may be where the wife goes to escape, so that could be off limits.;)

I doubt anyone would be interested in me bringing any of my stuff, but on the offchance, let me know, i'll bring anything i can fit in my car.

06-09-2009, 10:10 PM

I can bring my Sunfire and perhaps my Denon...

comfortablycurt

06-09-2009, 10:16 PM

Count me in as a definite maybe.:)

I don't have much in the way of gear to bring. I'd offer up my Peerless 7A's, but Rich already has a pair, so there wouldn't be much of a point...lol

messiah

06-10-2009, 01:59 AM

I'd love to meet up with some local polkies! I'd even bring chips n salsa :D
Just let me know!

I asked you guys to photo shop me into the pics! Sorry I missed this one, I know you guys had a good time. I've been to Rich's before and he's a gracious host.

Again I urge all polkies that live close to each other to have these get togethers. The RAS does it every few months and it's always a great time!
