Salk Veracity ST Speakers


I have never heard Salk Speakers. But a YT Video I was watching on the Veracity ST caught my attention for some reason.

They seem like really nice speakers and so I have been researching them since I saw the video and other Salk Speakers.

I currently have Martin Logan Motion 40 Towers paired to a Sugden A21SE Integrated.

The Veracity ST are rated at 88db versus my Motion 40's at 92db.

Both use ribbon tweeters.

I am wondering if the Salk would be a significant upgrade or just a marginal upgrade?

I know that's a tough question to answer without hearing both speakers but wanted to get opinions nonetheless.

Thanks

Several posters on the Audioholics site talk highly of Salk Speakers.  I auditioned one of the models many years ago (don’t remember the model) and was not overly impressed.  However, I think they were powered by an AVR and probably needed more power.  Check out the site and you will find many posts on these speakers.

I have Salk SS6M speakers and chose them over the Martin Logan Motion 60s. They are absolutely gorgeous, have incredible bass and accurate but intimate presentation, up and down the range. They also beat out Focal 936, Dynaudio Evoke 30, Fritz Carrera and Carbon 7 over a long range of A/B trials for me. I have powered them successfully with tube amps and with solid state, including the lower watt Pass amp. They are luscious.

I had veracity ht2-tl’s and lkked them but was not overly impressed either.  Seas excel drivers always sound smooth as do the raaltweeters.  Salk are really pretty too.

 

For the $ though, I personally would do something else.  Not to deter you because the new veracity’s look awesome and I personally love the dyed woods.
