Jim,

They are absolutely beautiful.
I suppose they may be in High Gloss ...???
The one with stringers is really beautiful. I wonder how would an all veneered ST with black stringers look.??? I am not gonna find out for myself...waiting for the Ziricote's.
The 2 ST's complete my list in veneer choices. Great Asymmetrical patterns is a dark shade of brown.
I wonder if the customers specify the thickness of the stringers....I would like thicker strings...
They look wonderful as they are...
Great
THanks

For me the Crotch Mahogany here beats the May # 2, 2007 Salk Sound HT3 in the same veneer.
These are BEAUTIFUL.

I too love the crotch mahogany veneer.  My next pair of Salk's (if I ever move up the line) will probably use that veneer.  Simply stunning!

They're all great.  But my favorite is the black with stringers--StealthTower.

How much does the black with stringers cost?

Black SongTowers are $1695.  Adding stringers runs about $200.

Thanks.  Oh yes, the machined aluminum front baffles and ribbon tweeter are $700.  But that is an option you may or may not want or need.

Looking great, Jim!  Who is the lucky dog getting those fancy black SongTowers with stringers?!  :D
 
Reminds me of a lovely pair of HT2s I know.  Great design and I like the full wrap of stringers at the base for the STs.   :thumb:
