There isn't a lot of information available on the rumored "HT4's," but what we do know is they are being considered, including some testing being done.
In my opinion the HT3 is going to be tough to beat, but Jim and Dennis are pros. If the "HT4" progresses and gets the green light, it's going to make a huge statement for Salk Sound (not that they need one, but still...).
What we know so far:
- A 12" bass woofer is rumored to replaced the HT3's 10 incher.
- Different drivers will be used for the midrange and tweeter than what's in the HT3.
- It will probably be a larger cabinet.
- It will cost significantly more than the HT3, but if Jim and Dennis can achieve the performance level they hope to, the price increase won't matter. We're talking Kef 207/2 and Revel Studio/Ultima performance here, at least from what I've gathered.
Anyone else have any info that they are allowed to share that won't upset Jim and Dennis? This is preliminary at this stage, but it sure is fun to talk about.
I'd like this to be the official "HT4" discussion and suggestion thread, at least until the real specifications are revealed.
Happy anticipating!
