Grant's HT3-based HT in wild ebony
« on: 7 May 2012, 03:28 pm »
Grant wanted a pair of Veracity HT3's, an HT2C center channel and a 15" Salk/Rythmik subwoofer.  He had seen a pair of HT3's we had done about 5 years ago with a very wild batch of ebony.  Unfortunately, ebony like that is very rare and we haven't seen any since we built that particular pair of HT3's.  So we launched a search to find some ebony that was at least close and found a particularly "wild" batch.

Here is a picture of the resulting HT3's...



And a close-up...



Here's a picture of the HT2C center channel...



And a picture of the 15" Rythmik sub - front view...

 

And from the rear...

 

Happy listening Grant!

Be sure to post some photos of them in your listening space once they are all set up if you can.

Those pics should be used on the website. They're probably the coolest HT3's I've seen.

Grant

Congratulations on your new speakers
Jim another stellar job - that veneer is wickedly good

A sub with the Ht3s should be interesting
Well done
