This one............


I liked the last two pairs on there. Gotta go wood Finish !!! I wish I had the space for multiple speakers as the HT3's would so be mine !!!


I like this style


Did you see the ones on AC recently, the HT3's that guy picked up ??? With the open baffle midrange ??? I like the traditional cabinet style better but the wood finish on his was damn nice.

Those Salk speakers are so sweet... I listend to them at the Audio -Karhma fest in Detroit ... very nice even if you buy them new they are priced well, they are on my short list of new speakers

Ya, I saw those. I wasn't a fan of the openness, but that wood finish was pretty sweet. And I agree, I'd rather have the wood finish if I got a pair of HT3's, and I'd get them like Funk (from AC and avs) got his, where it isn't tapered at the top. I'd love to take my p3, pair it with HT3's, and get a new beefy 2 channel amp and have a dedicated 2 channel system, and use my Song Towers for HT usage with a song center and surrounds. Mmm...one can dream. I need to graduate and make real money haha.

I'm not sure if my setup is unique, but it goes something like this: I have a 2 Ch. Parasound PLD-1100 pre-amp, which I absolutely love (particularly for its direct input which bypasses all internal circuitry).

However, I wanted to get 5.1 surround sound, but didn't want to let go of the PLD-1100. So, I bought a Parasound AVC-1800 and setup the 5.1 surround sound in the normal manner, except that, instead of sending the front outputs from the AVC-1800 directly to my amplifiers (Parasound HCA-1000A's, by the way), I send them to the auxiliary inputs of the PLD-1100.

As such, my system is essentially 2 systems (5.1 surround and 2 Ch.) in one: when I want to hear music, it's the PLD-1100 working only; and when I watch a movie, I have 5.1 surround sound (integrating the PLD-1100 for the mains). The only problem is that, once I get my subwoofers, I'll have to decide to either hook them up to the AVC-1800 (in which case, no sub for 2 Ch.) or hook them up using the loop outputs on the back of my amplifiers. Any thoughts on my setup?
