Why don’t you just come out and tell everyone that you believe the Words from the head Polk, you have mastered the Polk-a Dance, don’t anyone dare make your head hurt by pointing out the…absolutely OBVIOUS.
Just like with the EPL debacle…the position of the blinders becomes extremely obvious withing a few posts.

You don’t know what I believe in regards to AC’s situation, so don’t be jumping to conclusions.
What I don’t understand is why anyone thinks it matters whether AC is right or you are right or someone else is right. In the end, whatever is going to happen will happen, and all the speculation in the world isn’t going to change that.
Really, if AC had posted a message saying, “Yes, the rumors are true. We’re barely hanging on and will likely be out of business soon”, what difference would it make to anyone? We’d all still have exactly the same options we have now: Either buy up whatever products we can get our hands on, while we can. Or don’t.
If AC does in fact go out of business it would be a tragedy for them and a great blow to the hobby. I just find it disconcerting that there are people who seem to be eagerly waiting for it to happen just so they can have the “thrill” of saying, “See, I told you it was coming!”
It doesn’t matter. What does matter is the realization that the written word does not have body language.
It’s not a “thrill”, it’s reality.
We going to get that million dollar investor Scott mentions? Or no investor as Lewis doesn’t think we need one?
The real issue for those who watch is the continuous BS over the years…decades, even…get the faithful to toe the line…to belittle and denigrate any who would dare, even with photographic evidence, suggest oh, plating sloughs off, wheel gauge is not right, flange thickness suddently ballooned out of reality, gee, the socket wiring on my dash 9 seems to not work, why does my AC track gauge not match my AC track nor my AC wheels…
Is this another one of those?
Well, if you get one word from Scott, another from an interview of company officials BY a company employee published on a company website, when you add it all up, one might consider alternatives.
When you look at Scott’s alleged comment about a million dollar investor…and realize just how short a time ago the last big investor dumped bailout into the process…something ain’t right.
How viable can the company be?
I guess we’ll all find out.
I find the different quotes from different Polks to be…amazing, to say the least.
Scott said, what, 2014 before the next new stuff, or was it longer?
Lewis in the famous interview says…“a container of product arriving Mon/Tues next week.”
One thing we have found in the last several months…Scott does not have the “filters” Lewis does.
Obfuscation is the norm at that company…hence the bit about JP Morgan Associates and the million dollar investment.
Has nothing to do with anything, other than to divert attention.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
"I thought this topic was the rumors of AC going out of business. Those other things are separate issues.
And why does anyone care what “story” AC gives about it? Either they’ll stay in business, or they’ll fold, just like any other business. (And I don’t see any hobby manufacturers thriving in this crappy economy.) Why the need for all this mudslinging and speculation? "
It’s all the same, Ray. It’s divide and conquer…deny…obfuscate…rally the faithful…
One thing they are really good at…and if you knew the back stories and how many times it has happened…is pulling a rabbit out of the hat.
Current economy and economics may just prevent that from happening again…but maybe not.
I don’t think anyone has stated something exactly will happen…it’s just based upon facts and contradictory statements, when you compare to the “interview”…
