HT3 in bubinga

Veracity HT3 ...

stunning realism in a 3-way,
high-definition floor -standing reference monitor

After the initial success of the Veracity HT1 and Veracity QW designs, we turned our attention to developing a floor-standing, full-range Veracity model with deep bass extension. We searched for months for the right woofer, finally teaming up with the engineers at TC Sounds to produce a 10" woofer that has great power-handling characteristics, plays deep with authority and exhibits minimal distortion. Again, no compromises were made in the development of the HT3 design.

driversWhen you combine the world-class speaker drivers with a truly world-class crossover and custom cabinets designed to optimize driver performance, you gain an additional benefit—a rare speaker that excels at everything you throw at it. Read the reviews.

Want to upgrade? While we feel strongly that the stock HT3's will meet even the most demanding audiophile's needs, we have performed upgrades at customer's requests (these are "custom" speakers after all). Check out the upgrades we have done for others.

The Veracity HT3 is essentially ruler-flat from 34Hz to 25,000Hz, with an F3 of 29Hz and an F10 of 23Hz. It delivers crystal-clear transparency on the top end, extremely accurate midrange capable of resolving minute details in the source recording and, at the same time, delivers deep, musical bass...all with inaudible levels of distortion. What's more, it's imaging capabilities are difficult to put into words. Check out the HT3's specifications/cost and pricing/upgrade options.

That may sound too good to be true, but those are the goals we used to develop this world-class speaker system. And the results were better than we expected.

the sound

  • spikeHT3's are extremely transparent and literally disappear into the room for that "you are there" experience.
  • The top end is crystal clear with detailed overtones that make instruments and voices come alive.
  • The soundstage is deep and wide with instruments and vocals precisely located within a panorama of sound.
  • Midrange is extremely detailed and accurate. Voices are rendered with utter realism.
  • Fast transient response capabilities result in percussive sounds that are extremely realistic.
  • The HT3's response is essentially flat (+/- 1 1/2 db) from 34 Hz to well beyond audibility. F3 is just under 29 Hz and F10 is 23 Hz.

In short, the HT3's faithfully and truthfully render the highest quality full-range sound your source equipment is capable of providing.

built-in versatility

The HT3's are designed with the utmost versatility. A single pair plays stunningly beautiful music. Combine the HT3's with a dedicated HTC center channel and a pair of HT1's for surrounds, and you have a home theater system that would be difficult to top.

We designed this no-compromise system for ourselves and it is now our new flagship model. We took the time to do it right. Now you can enjoy it too!

contour switch optional contour switch

The HT3's are available with an optional contour switch to modify the top-end response.

The HT3's frequency response is extremely flat. But in an overly bright room or when listening to poorly recorded source material, it may be advantageous to slightly roll off the top end response. A simple flip of the switch swaps crossover components and changes the voicing appropriately.

other upgrades

While certainly no upgrades are required or even warranted in most cases, we strive to offer complete customization. Additional customer-requested upgrades we have performed in the past are listed here.

available finishes

As with all of our custom-crafted speakers, the HT3's can be ordered in virtually any finish you desire. Design your own finish with standard or exotic veneers and woods. Or match your favorite automotive finish if you prefer. See our custom finish options for details.

Veracity HT3 pricing

Normally, speakers of this quality retail from $12000.00 to $20,000.00 or more per pair. But because these are custom-crafted and you are purchasing direct, you can expect to pay considerably less. HT3 pricing starts at $4495.00 per pair. Click here for pricing information.
