The V3 design is available in two cabinet variations -
standard and custom. Both versions feature the same cabinet bracing and
construction techniques, the same drivers and the same crossovers. So there is
no difference in terms of performance between these versions. It is simply a
matter of cabinet style.
 standard cabinets
Standard cabients are built to our specifications and
ordered in quantity. That is how we are able to deliver a speaker of this
quality at this price. Of course, your finish choices are limited (standard
finishes yet to be determined).
V3 speakers in standard cabinets are
priced starting at $3495.00 per pair, plus packing and shipping.
See chart below
 custom cabinets
As the name implies, custom cabinets are just that. You
can choose virtually any woods/veneer/finishes you would like.
V3
speakers in custom cabinets start at $4495 per pair plus packing and shipping.

V3 Upgrades
...custom means just that
We feel strongly that stock V3'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.
customer ordered upgrades
Here is a list of upgrades available and their
associated costs. We will try to keep this list updated as additional owners
customize their V3 projects.
