Stunning Jim.

Have a great show.

Best regards,

Jim:

Those are extraordinary.

Frank:

Ah, I knew it (or maybe not). 2 Ultra Double 550 amps with the Insight Inverter Bridge?

When you all start selling your Salk speakers to get these bad boys, just let me know. My wallet may fall open and take your orphaned children.

Wow, those are STUNNING! The Beast emerges from the shadows... WOW... I think we should name them the "Sphinx" to go with the Pharos. Good luck at AKFest, Jim and Dennis.

OH MY!!!

These are fabulous!

I need a government bailout just for my drool! Great job, Jim. Go forth and wow their pants off at AKFest!

Wow - those are HUUUUUUUUUGE! Dual passive 12's...nice!

Best wishes to Jim and Frank at AK Fest tomorrow.

So when do we get to start talking about what the midrange and tweeter drivers are?

Jim,

Could you take a picture of the HT4's with Lonewolf holding a beer next to them? I have trouble appreciating the size of the speakers unless Lonewolf is in the photo.

The speakers kind of remind me of Von Schweikert VR5's. I can't wait to hear them.

Wow, those look very stout! The bass cabinets are pretty deep and the mid-tweeter cabinet has nice curves. They must really image great with that narrow baffle.

Good Luck at AKfest, and with your new references!

Joe

I can't fill your request Joe, but here is the next best thing:

Maybe somebody with some Photoshop skills can make it happen?
