Hi,
Good timing. I just got off the phone with Jim Salk to ask him if he was willing to sell my Pau Ferro Rosewood HT2-TLs because we just moved into a much smaller space. He called back to tell me about your post.
So, these are probably 10 years old to me but I bought them used and refurbished from Jim. They had them in a storefront and used as demos for a couple of months. They are the exact speakers shown on the Salksound website, first generation with the older ribbon tweeter - https://salksound.com/gallery/Veracity%20HT2-TL/HT2-TL-pauferrorosewood02-cu.jpg and https://salksound.com/gallery/Veracity%20HT2-TL/HT2-TL-pauferrorosewood02.jpg for pictures of them. Brand new, as equipped, these were over $4500.
If you're interested in them, you can email me at dakulis16@gmail.com. Two options, purchase them a little cheaper direct but know that I haven't unboxed them since the move but they worked perfectly before the move and they were boxed in the same boxes/materials that Jim shipped them in. The boxes are not damaged although the styrofoam was damaged in the original shipment to me and I pieced it all back together when I had these moved to our new place.
Option 2 - I ship them back to Jim and he ensures they are working well and you purchase them from me but through Jim and it will be more because I will pay for the inspection and they will need to be shipped twice.
Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,
You might want to clarify that the speaker from the website is not the HT2TL. It looks to the RT version from the song towers. I had a stock version of the HT2's many years ago and the LCY ribbon tweeter does sound very good. I've got a pair of Song 3's which use the RAAL and I don't know what all the fuss is about as the LCY is pretty good. Has a bit more 'air' than the RAAL ribbon tweeter.
Good luck with the sale.
Cheers Rod
