Veracity HT2-TL Pricing &
Upgrades
The HT2-TL cabinets are normally built with 1" MDF which
provides added mass over the normal 3/4" used in many of our other models.
The cabinets also feature a separate 1/2" MDF front baffle
over the drivers in the upper portion of the cabinet.
HT2-TL cabinets can be finished in satin black or the custom
color of your choice. They can also be veneered in a range of woods from
standard to premium. Again, it is your choice.
There are also several other options such as hardwood trim
with no additional front baffle, hardwood front baffles and plinths, etc.
The point is, you can have your HT2-TL's any way you want
them. Just let us know and we'll make it happen.

Veracity HT2-TL Upgrades
...custom means just that
We feel strongly that stock Veracity HT2-TL's will satisfy
even the most demanding audiophile. But we are, after all, custom builders. So
if you want something unique in terms of modifications, we will make it happen
for you.
Here is a list of upgrades available and their associated
costs. We will try to keep this list updated as additional owners customize
their HT2 projects.

Notes |
Cost * |
| Bamboo construction |
Bamboo is fast becoming a very popular material for
speaker building. It is renewable (a grass), high-mass, inert and VOC free.
It can be veneered or finished in its natural dyed or undyed state. |
$300 |
| 3/4" MDF rather than 1" MDF |
The standard HT2-TL cabinet is fashioned from 1" MDF.
The resulting cabinet is 17" deep. By utilizing 3/4" MDF instead, the cabinet
depth is reduced to 14" while maintaining the same internal volume. |
NC |
| Sonicap platinum bypass caps |
Crossover caps are bypassed with Sonicap platinum
bypass caps. These are extremely fast caps that theoretically speed up
charge/discharge times resulting in greater clarity |
$400 |
| Upgrade to solid wood front edge trim |
The roundovers on the HT2-TL's are normally on the
front baffle. However, it is possible to insert hardwood trim on the front
cabinet edges and round that over, eliminating the need for a separate
upper-section front baffle |
$200 labor plus the cost of the actual hardwood used,
the price of which can vary greatly. |
| Upgrade to solid wood front baffles and
plinths |
Solid wood baffles and plinths that match or provide
contrast with the cabinet veneer. |
$200 labor plus the cost of the actual hardwood used,
the price of which can vary greatly. |
Hand-rubbed, high-gloss piano lacquer
finish
(regular high-gloss finish can be applied at no extra
charge) |
This finishing process is extremely labor intensive.
Speakers are hand-rubbed to a mirror-like finish similar to fine musical
instruments and furniture. |
$1500 |
| Outboard passive crossovers |
The addition of stand-alone cabinets housing the HT2
passive crossovers. Includes additional required cabling and binding posts.
Outboard crossover enclosures are normally finished with the same veneer/woods
as the HT2's themselves.
Also allows for future conversion to HT2-TLa
active DEQX-based crossovers |
$600 |
| * Upgrade prices subject to change as we gain more
experience with these options. |
