QuoteI would love to hear those as well. I just completed the Exodus 2641 kit (uses same woofers and mids) and they sound very nice but they just sound too small/short for my tastes. The MTM upper would have really topped them off IMO.

That is a beautiful veneer, as well as an outstanding job in aligning it so that the grain looks symmetrical and the same.

Yes people refer to the 2 models but really different.
The HT8 uses a non square MTM area which loads the mids differently as well as the woofers act like a ported TL.
Then add in the ribbon compared to the Usher.

And yes I like the MTM over the twin with the single MT.Ovr all a stronger balance to the mids in the MTM.

John....They look great !!! Looks like you'll have a good time listening....nice.
Denny's done a great job on the veneer....same with AL, he makes some very good speakers. Good luck !!! :beer:

Thanks Chris.
We feel with the addition of Denny making cabinets we can speed up some production times due to demand on our smaller HT3's we have the shop loaded most of the time.

This is the way all speakers should be shipped!

Yep.....shipping can really take a toll if not packed correctly.
Looks like the fun should be starting soon....enjoy !! :beer:

My new preamp showed up in a plywood shipping crate, it's the first piece I've received that way.  It seems you're receiving something out of Raiders of the Lost Ark, like something really, truly precious lives inside.  It's a great feeling.

I look forward to hearing about these beauties!

My Resolution Audio Opus 21 also came in a little 14x14x14 wood crate with gray foam lining and a hinged lid.  Very nice and not terribly costly.  Tom

Well John has been a little loaded with the HT8 plus he added a center channel our HT2C.

So happy he just ordered the HT3 as surrounds, yes in Rosewood to match the other 3.
Will be interesting to see these in the finished room. along with his new Mac's.
