SoundScape 12s ordered today!

Isaac. · « **on:** 30 Mar 2011, 01:21 am »

Hey Guys,

I've been a participant over at the VSA circle previously but have since moved on. I am very pleased to have placed my order today for a pair of SS 12s in a special finish that Jim has previously posted--a silver/grey dyed tiger maple:

I simply can't wait! Good to join you guys.

Isaac in Denver

I wish I would have had the money and the room to have ordered the SS12’s when I bought my SS10’s.

PS What you saw at the RMAF 2010 was a prototype. Yours will be much nicer.

I love the finish you chose. Congrats on your purchase!

You're going to love them! Congratulations.

I remember when I first ordered the SoundScapes, I was dying of excitement. And then when they came to my door... just shit the bed. You're in for a treat.

Wow - those are going to be awesome! Congratulations and welcome to the Salk family. I think you'll be very pleased with your purchase.

Those are, without a doubt in my mind, the finest sounding speakers available today! (And I've seriously auditioned hundreds, and blind-controlled compared dozens of quality loudspeakers.) Jim's fabulous cabinetry isn't chopped liver, either. Many congrats, Isaac!

I think you will love them.

After hearing (and loving) the HT3's, I hope someday to hear Salk's topfotheline SoundScape12 loudspeakers. Congratulations on your purchase, i'll be looking foreward to both your thoughts and pictures!!!

Cheers,
Robin

Congratulations Isaac, welcome to the Salk family. Echoing prior comments, am sure you are in for a treat. And when Mudslide says they are the best, he's heard the rest, how can you question a pair of ears such as his. Just look at his photo. Would that guy lie to you ?

We'll be looking forward to pics, with the obigatory delivery truck (semi) in your case I'd guess.

Congratulations on the SS 12’s I wish I could have got the SS but maybe in the future. I order the HT3’s with the HTC in a very similar finish Curly Maple dyed black with silver gray highlights told Jim to do what he though was best just 2.5 – 3 weeks to go. Good Luck

Awesome, congrats! I love my SS10's more and more.

Congratulations and that's a sweet finish. Please post pictures of the completed speakers and your listening room if you get the chance.

And check out this nose while you're at it.

I can smell a setup, AD.

As AD says, Isaac...we need pics!

Well done Isaac

Love the dyed tiger maple!

Looking forward to reading your review once you have had some time with the SS12's (assuming you will write one).

Thanks All!

Truly looking forward to it. Will be sure to post pictures. Glad to be with the Salk team!

Key-ryst, upgradeitis from SS10's! That's all I needed to hear.

(Potential SS8 buyer)

That doesn't sound like a treat to me.

Congratulations!

I'm so freakin' jealous!

vermont99 · « **Reply #19 on:** 4 Jun 2011, 08:29 pm »

Congratulations. I’m jealous starting to wonder if I should have waited and ordered the SS’s instead of the HT3’s. My HT3’s should be shipped very soon can’t wait, I just hope the upgrade bug does not hit too soon.
