Sorry for the delayed respsonse. Somehow I missed this thread.
The One Pi Tower is a standard One Pi Studio speaker installed in a larger floorstanding enclosure. The greater interior volume of the floorstandign enclosure provides a bit more bass extension than the standmount, and I believe floorstanders look better too. You can build a pair by ordering two One Pi kits from Pi Speakers. You'll also need two 4" ports which are available from Parts Express. Here's a highly regarded amplifier manufacturer's comments about this speaker:

The Texas Revelator Tower is a kit from Selah Audio. It's quite a bit more expensive than the one pi, but still very reasonably priced at $1,500 considering the fact that it uses three $225 Scan Speak Revelator drivers per side. Here's the link to some discussion about this speaker: http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=66179.0
