I probably do Pete! This is my last pair, really; I promise! When I picked up the last pair (BeAT's) in December I asked Jim if he'd thought about building a bookshelf/monitor with a Be tweeter and a Purifi mid woofer. I told him if he decided to do that I'd be interested. About a month or so later he got hold of me and told me he was building a floor stander similar to the active speaker he'd built with the AMT and wondered if I'd be interested in that. I thought about it a bit and decided to go ahead provided I could sell the BeAT's. He graciously sold them for me and here we are!

Just let me know when you're done with them!

It is a 2-way. We may be doing a 3-way in the next couple of months.

Jim, thanks for the reply. I guess the next question would be why didn't you make it a mtm design like the Ht-2?

I honestly haven't made up my own mind about the relative sonic merits of MMT's vs MTM's. In this case, the advantage is more one of size--the MMT allows a shorter cabinet to get the tweeter up where it needs to be.

BEdonkadonk

Although that may be more fitting a bigger, more curvy model

Thanks Dennis, makes sense. The soundstage of the Ht-2's is amazing.

As far as name:True series, this would be the True 2

Sounds like these could be very special speakers Jim. If they are, can they rise to the level of being called:
Salk Sound
Signatures

that can open up the possibility to have a signature line to build on...

Be tweeters are said to sound spatial, so Be Spatial, sounds like Be Special.
