Thanks for the review.... When I was out auditioning speakers for my first set, I stumbled upon a set of Model: S1T.... I had never heard of this company before. I had listened to a dozen speakers that day, and these were the first to literally drop my jaw to the floor. Totally the first time I heard speakers with sound not coming from the box. I couldn't believe the depth and imaging I heard from them, they really sounded spectacular, and the wood work on them was just beautiful, then I looked at the pricetag - they were completely out of my pricerange...

But I will never forget how they sounded..... great job ID

If you ever have a chance to give them a listen, don't hesitate - it was a very enjoyable and memorable experience for me.

Browsing through their site I noticed 2 things:

1. Their heavy weight is 240 lbs.
2. No price tags.

What was the price on the ones you saw Warp?

Those S1t's I saw went for $5000.00 a pair..... If that is any indication, and those were small speakers, same size as the Energy 2.4i they were sitting next too, but they hands down blew the Energy's out of the water.

Just to see what the Energy 2.4i Veritas were all about I did a search and came up with this:

I should make an effort to audition something, anything.
What I'd really like even more is to open one of those 240 lb beasts up to see how they made it.

Yeah, the Energy's were out of my price range at the time then too, but they weren't marked at full list there.... I didn't feel that they sounded that much better to me then the Studio 100's at that time... who knows how I would feel now, I seem to have a more refined view of speakers and how they sound to me know..

I noticed that they carried some patents on those speakers so I googled them. It had to do with their grill attachment mechanism. These guys are serious.

This snooping through patents is new to me and I find it really interesting.

Hey Tom,

How does this work? Do you actually have these speakers to review?
