Connect the SA-2 at speaker level from the receiver’s speaker outputs,

with fixed high-pass filter

Use if:

You wish to send your L & R speakers a high-pass filtered signal

Your receiver has no “Pre-Out”, “Line Out” or “Subwoofer Out” jacks

This method of connection is recommended if you have a receiver with no line level preamplifier output of any sort and you want your L & R speakers to receive a high-pass filtered signal. The SA-2 may be connected to the system at speaker level between the receiver and the speakers. The SA-2’s speaker-level output has a fixed 100Hz high-pass filter that removes frequencies below 100Hz before sending the signal on to the speak- ers. The speaker-level high-pass filter is not adjustable. This method is not recommended if the L & R speak- ers are large, full range models.

1)Connect a pair of speaker cables from your receiver’s front L & R speaker output terminals to the SA-2’s INPUT FROM AMPLIFIER barrier strip.

2)Connect a second pair of speaker cables from the SA-2’s OUTPUT TO SATELLITES barrier strip to the front L & R speakers.

3)Connect the SA-2’s SUBWOOFER OUTPUT to the SW2Si input terminals with speaker cable.

SA-2 specifications

The NHT SA-2 is a remarkable achievement in the world of audio engineering, representing a synthesis of innovative design, advanced technology, and exceptional acoustic performance. Launched by NHT (Next High Technology), a company renowned for its commitment to high-fidelity audio reproduction, the SA-2 stands out for both its aesthetic appeal and high-performance specifications.

One of the standout features of the NHT SA-2 is its compact design, making it suitable for a variety of listening environments. This speaker is engineered to deliver a full-range sound experience despite its smaller footprint. The SA-2 utilizes a proprietary 5.25-inch woofer that is designed to produce deep and rich bass tones, complemented by a 1-inch silk dome tweeter that excels in handling high frequencies. This combination allows the SA-2 to reproduce a broad dynamic range, ensuring that listeners can experience their music with clarity and detail.

In terms of technology, the NHT SA-2 leverages advanced materials and construction techniques to enhance performance. The woofer cone is formed from a specially engineered composite material that offers both rigidity and lightweight properties. This helps to minimize distortion and ensures that sound waves are produced accurately. Additionally, the tweeter's silk dome design contributes to a smooth frequency response, reducing harshness and delivering a more natural sound.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the NHT SA-2 is its versatility. It is designed for both two-channel stereo setups and can easily integrate into multi-channel home theater systems. The speaker can be used in various configurations, whether as part of a dedicated music listening space or in a surround sound setup, making it a flexible choice for audiophiles and casual listeners alike.

The SA-2 also benefits from thoughtful engineering. Its rear-firing port enhances bass response, allowing for greater low-frequency extension without requiring excessive cabinet size. This design choice enables it to adapt well in different room environments, further enhancing its usability.

Overall, the NHT SA-2 embodies the core principles of high-quality audio reproduction. With its advanced construction, thoughtful engineering, and versatile application, it is an excellent choice for anyone looking to elevate their listening experience. Whether used for music, movies, or gaming, the NHT SA-2 promises a captivating and immersive sound that delights the senses.
