Salk HT1-TL,Tyler D3, KEF XQ40,Spendor A6,MA GS20

I heard the Salks at the Oregon gtg Audioholics thingy. They sounded good and looked execelent.
Jim Salk will customize them with just about any wood you want and they sound open and honest!!!!
If you buy a pair of Salks, you will work with the owner until you are totally satisfied! Jim is a great guy.

I've had a pair of D3s for almost a year now, and I'm very happy with them. They are indeed quite musical.
Their imaging is probably their strongest suit.
I heard a pair of Salks at RMAF last year, but I'm not sure it was the HT2-TLs. They sounded quite nice, but I didn't get a chance to listen that critically.
The Salk fit and finish may have an edge as Ethanh stated (their optional hand-rubbed finishes are gorgeous but pricey) but my wife is very pleased with the looks of the D3s.
Ty's a great person to do business with as well.

45 watts is more than enough to make the D3's sing, by the way. I'm using a 30-watt Red Wine Audio amp that works quite well with them.

I own a pair of Salk HT3 and they are by far the best speakers I have ever owned or listen to. Very revealing and great value. I almost purchased some Tylers and they are also very good speakers. Tough choices.

Good luck.

I am considering Tyler D3/D3M. I wonder how good it is when it is at low volume ? Any comments are appreciated.

Try AKFest 2010 in Detroit suburb this weekends.
Tyler and Salk will be there.
I like my Tyler Linbrook SS. I will try both Salk and Tyler in AKFest and see which would fit more to my taste.
