There’s something special about Northern California. The wine, the food, the weather, even the music around here is full of a light and life that’s hard to find anywhere else. We like to think that a little bit of that feeling makes its way into every loudspeaker that we design here in Benicia.

One thing becomes immediately clear during a tour of the NHT offices: we’re music guys. Just about everyone involved in the design, marketing, and support of our products plays an instrument or two. This constant exposure to live music makes us unapologetic perfectionists when it comes to speaker design.

NHTPro recording monitors have been used in numerous studio sessions that resulted in many of your favorite records. It’s one thing to build a speaker that sounds nice. It’s another thing entirely to build a speaker that shows you what’s really going on in a performance.

It’s one thing to believe your own hype and think you build a good product; it’s quite another to have some of the most respected names in the business say so. Since our founding in 1987, we’ve earned a lobby full of product-of-the-year awards, and the accolades just keep on coming. Please drop by our website, or your local newsstand to see who’s talking about us today.

Bookshelf Speaker specifications

The NHT Bookshelf Speaker stands out as a remarkable audio solution for both music enthusiasts and casual listeners alike. Encased in a sleek and elegant design, these speakers not only offer exceptional sound quality but also fit seamlessly into various home environments.

One of the standout features of the NHT Bookshelf Speaker is its high-performance drivers. Equipped with a custom-designed 5.25-inch woofer and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter, these speakers deliver a well-balanced sound profile. The woofer is engineered to handle a wide frequency range, producing deep, rich bass while maintaining clarity in the midrange frequencies. The silk dome tweeter enhances the listening experience by providing smooth and detailed high frequencies, ensuring that every note and nuance in the music is captured.

NHT has incorporated advanced technologies into these speakers to enhance sound dispersion and imaging. The proprietary waveguide design used in the tweeter optimizes sound distribution, allowing for an expansive soundstage that creates an immersive listening environment. This technology minimizes the effects of room acoustics, ensuring that every corner of the room experiences the same high-quality sound.

Another notable characteristic of the NHT Bookshelf Speaker is its versatile connectivity options. These speakers are designed to work effortlessly with various audio setups, including home theater systems, stereo systems, and even computer setups. With a standard 8-ohm impedance, they are compatible with a wide range of amplifiers, making them an excellent choice for DIY audio enthusiasts and those looking to upgrade their current systems.

The build quality of these speakers is equally impressive. Constructed from durable MDF (medium-density fiberboard), they are reinforced to reduce cabinet resonance and vibration. The stylish veneer finish not only adds aesthetic appeal but also ensures longevity, making them a lasting addition to any audio setup.

In summary, the NHT Bookshelf Speaker combines exquisite design, advanced technology, and outstanding sound quality to create an audio experience that is hard to beat. Whether for casual listening, movie watching, or critical music enjoyment, these speakers are engineered to impress, providing clarity and depth that bring your favorite tunes and cinematic experiences to life.
