    Default Polk will no longer supply polyswitches

    It's official, Polk will no longer supply replacement polyswitches. You will have to buy replacements from places like Parts Express (limited selection) or Mouser.com.

    No biggie. Poly switches suck anyways. Use the volume control with your ears. Resettable fuses are better IMHO.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Sounds like a kinky situation involving a girl I used to know.

    Alas, she is no longer "available" either.
