HT8O 3-way tower kit

The HT8O speaker kit, with the 2008 OW4 Hiquphon Platinum dome tweeter, retaining the same crossover points as our popular HT8 with the ribbon tweeter.

Slim look with a lifestyle to itself! An MTM with twin side-firing 6.8" drivers tuned to 27 Hz makes a slim floor stander that is very easy to place in any room, at only 7" in width. With the woofers side-loaded you can control the low-end response by positioning them towards a wall or away from it. Bonus: no subwoofer will be needed for most applications.

The slim high-power-handling floor stander.
