These are just incredible speakers for the money. Even when it was $2,300 NEW, reviewers alike were calling them a bargain because their sound quality was something you get from speakers costing two, three times as much. Speakers are very well made and stands 44″ tall, 8″ wide and 12″ deep (not including the plinth) and packs two 5″ mid-woofers and one 3/4″ Hiquphon OW2 tweeter which is renown for their sweetness and accuracy. Although each speaker has three drivers, it is essentially a 2-way transmission line speaker. Which explains the impressively deep bass response – 38 Hz. The highs top out at 20 kHz. Nominal impedance is 6 ohm and sensitivity is 88 dB with a recommended amplifier power of 100W. They are not particularly fussy with room interaction but if you experiment with placements in your room, you will relish how great the speakers sound. Soundstage was impressively wide and deep in our listening room and imaging was first class. Take them slightly out from the back and side wall and the musical presentation can be addictive. Especially with vocals. Salk Sound has an impressively large catalog and if their SongTower sounds this good and at such an affordable price point, their bigger and more expensive models must be ground breaking!
Speakers look really nice with a few very light scuff marks here and there but nothing major. Speakers will be securely pack for safe shipping (they are shipped in two boxes). Local pickup from our store encouraged.
