HI Guys,

After several years of deliberation, I have decided to sell my HDT towers. I absolutely love the way they sound and the longer I listen to them, the better they get. Sadly they are taking up a bit more real estate than i would like to have in the room where I am using them They are also being used primarily for HT which is not what they are best at. They are awesome with music and are actually too good for HT. Consequently they haven't been used very much.

They are constructed from 3/4 furniture grade maple (13 ply I believe) and finished with a poly stain and clear coat. Not the best I have ever seen, but they aren't bad. The backs of the cabs are unfinished, but I still have some of the stain if you would like me to finish them. The drivers are wired in series resulting in about 9 ohms impedance total, but could be rewired to parallel if you need a lower load. The top driver is a Fostex FE126E and the bottom driver is the Silver Flute W20RC38-08 Wool cone.

I estimated shipping through UPS and UPS freight using Beverly Hills as the destination which came up to $187.50 for the pair. USPS won't handle it and the freight rates I got were higher. You may want to check into arranging shipping yourself depending on destination etc.

I would like to get $600 for the pair. Here are pics of the construction and finished product. I will be building a new set of grilles (inset) on friday as well.

I wish I could convince my wife to let me trade these for a pair of ERR's but sadly I would have to spend another few grand to build my listening room to justify it  ;)

I may get my wish in the next year or two. I am hoping to build a few speakers for people to sell. Any requests will be gladly handled lol. I am getting better at this stuff.

For the record, my HDTs sound awesome even on my sandbox onkyo (much better on my little chip amp surprisingly) but the ERRs I have heard are still my favorite sound ever.

Thanks for the compliments buddy! That means a lot coming from you.

LOL Had the thought of making clones of these. What do you think I could ask? Maybe $4,000,000.00>

really I am not sure what I should start with. I have a few custom designs for Home theater and subs and I also have a few semi-High Efficiency stuff, but I would never want to compete with Steve and Bob on any level. Too much respect.

I have a pretty awesome set of Onken bookshelf speakers designed with no crossover and app 93db efficiency, but they are between sizes right now. Might make a terrific stand style tower......

I want someone to build me these.

Hey Donnie,

I can build em! I have thought about doing it myself for kicks. Won't be cheap though. That's a lot of wood! Heck, I think I even have plans for them somewhere around here. .....

If you did it though, I would suggest doing the whole thing as in this document complete with the El-Pipe-O for low end. Hard to believe you need a sub with a horn having a 50sq ft mouth lol.

Don't cut corners Donnie!

If you are building speakers this big, it is a must to build a separate room for listening to enjoy them the way they were intended. As a matter of fact, I might recommend a bunker using the earth as the outer boundary for support.

I also think it might be best to build two pairs of Imperial SO's and use Steve's broadcast system from the Zen Open Baffles to feed them.

As ridiculous as all that sounds, it would be a display worthy of a world class store to have something like that wouldn't it? I mean.....Prove you are insane and take sound seriously all at the same time?

I would definitely do the build if someone wanted it though. I would have to have a free pass to listen whenever I wanted though. .....For all others, I would charge admission....

Now Musgo the speakers you are thinking about making clones of kinda look like a dildo on a stand. One way of getting the gals to listen to the old system eh?

On a more serious note where would the speakers ship from?
