.........SOLD...............
Salk HT-3's are Truly Outstanding Speakers both Sonically and Visually.. These are a very nice pair with black hole pad and upgraded crossovers. The design, finish, execution, and Sound are World Class. This an opportunity to pick up a pair at a reasonable price and without having to wait 6 months to have them built. Base price of the Salk HT3 speakers are $4,995.00 + upgrades. The reviews of the Salk HT3's have a perfect 5 on Audioreview. They are also EXTREMELY well received and recommended in the Audiogon threads, Audioasylum, and Audio Circle . One of the few truly great speakers! I purchased the Salk’s from a fellow audiogon member and they were purchase from Jim Salk. There are a few very minor blemishes on the speakers. The veneer has a blemish on the side of one speaker, one Very Very small one by the woofer and the bottom plates have a few small scrapes on the very bottom. The noted blemishes are only vi sable from upon very close inspection of the speakers. The over all presentation is EXTREMELY nice. Sonically, the speakers are in perfect condition!
 I prefer not to ship and would like them picked up from Asheville NC 28806 do to size and weight. They are just to beautiful and heavy to ship . Checks must clear before pick up. Postal Money order or cash.. Priced very fair for pick-up. These are also listed on audiogon.

The finish is Wenge and the Speakers have the upgraded Silver Spikes.  I have Pics for those interested or you can take a look at Audiogon.

Are you sure these speakers have the upgraded crossover and blackhole 5? 

I could be wrong, but If these speakers originally belonged to Nick, I don't remember Nick advertising the upgrades.  I know Jim initially built these speakers for himself.  To my knowledge, Jim doesn't apply internal upgrades to speakers which he will be using to demo to potential customers since many customers may not want them, and Jim prefers that the customer hear the originals.

Also, Jim usually mentions upgrades within his "Veracity of the month" picks, and I don't see it mentioned there either.  http://www.salksound.com/gallery-votm-0407-1.shtml

Even without the upgrades, this is a killer price.  I only mention this because I don't want any fellow AC folk to possibly purchase something, and it's not all there. 

If I am wrong, and these speakers do have the upgrades, I apologize.

Hi
Yes the speakers did belong to Nick.  I Talked to Jim about the speakers and then took one of the woofers out.  The cabinet did have the Black Hole Pad lining and Alpha Core inductor and many "White Caps.  I couldn't see the name.  I E mailed Jim and he stated that this is an indication of the upgraded crossover.  I guess I could be wrong but I am only going by what Jim said.  I should of taken a pic.
