HT3O 3-way tower speakers

HT3O, with the 2008 OW4 Hiquphon Platinum dome tweeter. It is our smallest 3-way tower, standing on a footprint of only 7" (width) by 11" (depth). These speakers need only a small area, yet produce a very large sound stage.

Compact and dynamic, yet not overshadowed for its size, the HT3O in our standard cherry finish comes with magnetic grilles on hidden mounts for a clean look. The OW4 dome retains the same crossover points as our popular ribbon HT3, which was reviewed by Stereomojo.

Slim looking and stylish, with shocking mids and highs; lows tuned to 29 Hz.

Frequency range

15 Hz – 40 kHz · log scale
In-room response down to 25 Hz; port tuned to 29 Hz; crossover at 2.5 kHz.

Construction

  • Solen capacitors with a Solen plus Sonicap stack on the midrange, foil 16 gauge inductors (midrange and tweeter), metal oxide resistors, Sonicap Gen II by-pass capacitors
  • Cardas lead-free silver solder

Finish

We apply a labour-intensive, multi-layered (6 coats!) lacquer finish, hand-polished to a vivid satin sheen that brings out the most intricate details of our standard real wood veneers. Assembled by hand, finished by hand, applied by hand: only the highest quality control standards are maintained from start to finish.
