Wow, I've never heard of those before. I'd love to see the driver compliment but the grills apparently don't even come off. How would you replace bad parts, etc?

Ok, the question is now, who is interested for their own use, and who is interested in 'bringing these home' to the gathering at Polk HQ in September?

I've got a few guys already that have agreed to pitch in for the 'greater good', and bring these back to Polk HQ to donate.

Cheers,
Russ

**dorokusai** · 07-09-2005 10:45 PM

I'm in, but $70 shipping? That guy must be an amateur.

**RuSsMaN** · 07-09-2005 10:46 PM

I'm in, so is Doro.

Off chance, is any member nearby for local pickup, that is driving in to the gathering?

**Polk65** · 07-09-2005 10:50 PM

I know many including myself would love to "have" them in their collection.

Polk HQ is where they belong, right next to the PA's. I'll pitch in towards bringing them home.

These pictures are part of a tour by a lucky person: [url]http://www.donlindich.com/polk1.html[/url]

**RuSsMaN** · 07-09-2005 10:55 PM

Email me your info Polk65. Still looking for a local pickup member that can make it to gathering, or help with a CP pony express.

Cheers,
Russ

**amulford** · 07-09-2005 11:08 PM

I'm in. I think ohskigod lives kind of close (within an hour). How 'bout it , Lou?

I'm around two, if need be.

**jtgranby** · 07-09-2005 11:13 PM

I'm in for half a bone.
JT

**RuSsMaN** · 07-09-2005 11:26 PM

JT is in , Anthony talk to me. I've got the running tally, but don't want to post it here.

Starting to send emails guys, email me @ [email]ranchodeaudio@comcast.net[/email] so I can put you 'in the loop'.

Cheers,
Russ

**F1nut** · 07-09-2005 11:28 PM

I'll fix the cabinets.

**Polk65** · 07-10-2005 12:15 AM

I suggest we edit out what we're chipping in from our posts and email Russ with the amount. It won't be to our benefit if the seller reads this.

**michael_w** · 07-10-2005 02:11 AM

Great link... that would be such an awesome tour.

**TroyD** · 07-10-2005 08:24 AM

I'm in as well....lemme know what you need.

BDT

**DAGLJAM6** · 07-10-2005 09:00 AM

I'm in. You've got mail.

**ohskigod** · 07-10-2005 10:24 AM

i think i'm close enough to grab these, and barring freak circumstance i'm coming to polkfest. i'll even chip in if need be.

where in long island is he?

I live on Long Island and depending where this guy lives, it could be a long ride from NYC. If he lives on eastern LI, it could be two hours min from the city (not incl city traffic)

I would be glad to help out with this. However, I am not going to Polkfest so if someone could meet me in NJ, I can do a hand off. I would be coming from LI so if we could arrange a hand off somewhere in northern Jersey that would be great.

Let me know

Mike

**ohskigod** · 07-10-2005 10:52 AM

hey, if i was willing to go to LI, i guess a hand off shouldnt be a problem :D
geess well figure it out when the time comes.

**amulford** · 07-10-2005 11:16 AM

Are you coming to Maryland? If not, lemme know, I could meet you and take them.

Edit: Sorry, Lou, didn't read that right. If freak circumstances do occur, let me know.

**ohskigod** · 07-10-2005 11:46 AM

thats what i figured, even in the slight chance i can not attend (or have to miss the friday, when i assume these things would be given to Polk), i could just pass them to you easily enough, either way, i'd say we have a viable enough chain to get this job done if it comes to it.

**RuSsMaN** · 07-10-2005 02:17 PM

Awesome guys. I just emailed the seller, to verify local pickup was ok.

Cheers,
Russ

**disneyjoe7** · 07-10-2005 02:59 PM

I'm in also so let me know what you need. $ or ?

**RuSsMaN** · 07-10-2005 03:59 PM

He said local pickup is doable, now the waiting game.

Mike

**RuSsMaN** · 07-10-2005 07:00 PM

Not bad at all. West Islip is only 10-15min from my house.

Mike

**Dennis Gardner** · 07-10-2005 08:42 PM

I'm in Russ whatever it works out to be.
