NHT Classic Four Black(Pr) 4-Way Floorstanding Speakers

Provided by OneCall

Form Follows Function
While the Classic series of products are certainly beautiful, their shape is all about the business of making great sound. The graceful cabinets place every driver into a consistent, predictable acoustical environment. For example, variable radius edges on the cabinet sides randomize diffraction from the midrange and tweeter drivers, aiding the speakers` dispersion of midrange and high frequency sounds, while careful placement of the Four`s built-in subwoofer guarantees tremendous deep bass response in almost any room.

Conservatively Dressed
Our cabinets are made with MDF, a board manufactured primarily of wood residues from the production of lumber and plywood with a low percentage of virgin tree wood. We finish them with 7 coats of hand-finished polyurethane applied in a “solid particle" method that`s safe for the environment. This finish is then sealed with 2 coats of automotive grade clear-coat to protect the finish for years. By avoiding exotic wood veneers, and using materials such as MDF in the construction of our cabinets, we`re not sacrificing scarce natural resources to make acoustically sound, furniture grade cabinets.

Smarter Parts
By using two low distortion drivers mounted close together on a single plate, we are able to produce a speaker with a larger listening area, lower distortion, and higher power handling than previous 2-way designs. All of the 5.25 inch and 6.5 inch woofers in the Classic line feature frames made from BMC (Bulk Molding Compound). Usually a designer has to choose between inexpensive, mechanically sound materials
such as ABS plastic and stamped steel, or expensive materials such as cast aluminum or magnesium
that are ideal acoustically and mechanically. BMC gives us the best of both worlds: a cost effective
material that is immensely stiff, and easily shaped into acoustically ideal shapes.
