NHT Speakers
Our first new product of the decade, The Absolute Tower is the new sleek and affordable floor-standing speaker solution for high-performance music or home theater systems. The design joins together the Absolute Zero bookshelf mini-speaker with 2 newly designed 5.25" woofers (in a separate chamber) in a slender column-like enclosure. The best speakers to combine with the Absolute Tower would be the Absolute Zero for the surround speakers and the Absolute Center center channel speaker for a seamlessly matched, yet surprisingly affordable home theater system.

The Absolute Tower loudspeaker is an all-acoustic suspension design. Acoustic suspension designs utilize nature's perfect spring force, air, to damp and control the speaker motion like high performance shocks on a sports car. This significantly lowers distortion for long, fatigue-free listening and improves impulse response allowing subtle detail to be revealed, making everything sound more real. Acoustic suspension designs also allow incredible power handling.

The Absolute Tower's floor standing cabinets are beautiful: delicate, yet incredibly robust. The Absolute Towers extensively braced cabinets are acoustically inert so unwanted cabinet vibrations will never be added to your music. They weigh in at a bit over 35 lbs. each and are constructed of medium density fiberboard. The gently sculpted base puts the Absolute Tower on stable footing and is weighted with a hidden steel plate to provide mass where it is acoustically desirable - further reducing cabinet-born resonances.

The Absolute Towers, like all NHT Classic Series loudspeakers, are finished with 2 primer coats, 7 color coats of polyester paint, and topped with 2 coats of clear acrylic polymer. This piano-gloss black finish is an NHT hallmark.

Finally, a word about value. For over 20 years, NHT’s award-winning high-end, not high-price speakers and electronics have been legendary. Many of our designs sell used for near their original retail prices! Now NHT's new direct business design eliminates several layers of mark-ups, creating a better value for our customers. We now sell and ship every single product direct to consumers, their favorite AV installer, and to a select group of reputable Internet Retailers. This allows us to sell at prices 20-30% less than competitors while being more friendly to the earth. Join our family and friends who love great music, movies and the products that produce them! Now hear this!
