Veracity HT1

April

This pair of Veracity HT1's was actually started quite some time ago. But I never got around to finishing them until Bill Franklin saw a pair I did in burled redwood and inquired about them.

Unfortunately, they were already sold. But fortunately, I remember I had these and the color pallete was somewhat similar.

The holidays all over again

This was a very unique combination of veneer and wood. The veneer is cinnamon burl and the front baffle is African bosse pommele - a very attractive combination.

Working with them, it almost seemed like the holidays. The cinnamon burl has a look that reminds me of boiling plum pudding and the bosse smelled like cloves. Normally speakers are designed to sound good, but these smelled wonderful as well!

Sometimes it takes a while to pull everything together. These were a long time in the making, but definitely worth the wait.

what's next?

How about a pair of HT3's using this same bosse pommele for the front baffle and trim. Ah, but what to match it up with...

Stay tuned...
