„Design

NHT loudspeakers are designed to deliver refined, musical sound from attractive and affordable packages. Our efforts are guided by the study of human hearing and are optimized for real-world use. Every NHT speaker undergoes rigorous testing and quality control at the factory to ensure you years of listening pleasure.

The CS-6.1 Ci and CS-6.3 Ci are designed to deliver the sonics and value of NHT’s acclaimed freestanding speakers, while offering the invisibility of in-ceiling installation. The drive units are custom-designed to achieve a level of performance not normally associated with in-ceiling speakers, while its intuitive mounting system makes it ideal for new or existing construction. The CS-6.1 Ci features one coaxially mounted tweeter, while the CS-6.3 Ci employs NHT’s innovative three- tweeter array for more even sound dispersion to a wider range of listening areas.

Caution: The CS-6.1 Ci and CS-6.3 Ci should be installed by an experienced and licensed custom installation profes- sional. Be sure that the installer possesses sufficient skill, the proper tools, knowledge of local fire and building codes, and a familiarity with the structure of the building (especially wall and/or ceiling materials, layouts, electrical and plumbing lines, etc.).

„Placement

The CS-6.1 Ci and CS-6.3 Ci are designed for in-ceiling installation between standard 2” wood joists. Their moisture-resis- tant drive units allow them to be installed in moisture-prone interior environments such as bathrooms, indoor swimming pool and sauna rooms. Outdoor use is not recommended.

Spend some time considering placement prior to installing the speakers. Once they are installed, they are permanent, so their location should be selected carefully. When possible, locate the speakers at least 3 feet from adjacent side walls. The speakers should be mounted on a flat surface to ensure a good seal between the baffle and the mounting surface. When possible, position the speakers so that they are equidistant from the most likely listening area. If the CS-6.1 Ci or
