So, I am surfing on Amazon a few months ago and spot these NHT Super Zero 2.0 speakers for $62.00 a piece shipped. I am thinking that these are seriously Taco Bell cheap, so why not!? Nothing to lose but $125 if they totally suck. Being a sucker for cheap stand mounts, I bought them. I got them a couple days later and ended up putting them on a shelf in the basement and got busy and forgot about them. Finally got around to unboxing them and setting them up to play expecting to be disappointed.
The verdict: These diminutive little things absolutely and positively sound great! In all fairness, they are designed to used as a mid/high speaker that have to be mated up with a subwoofer. I used a Rythmik F12 servo sub. The upstream gear is nothing special, but I believe I have something good going on here. My listening room is small (11x12) so the speakers are set up in a nearfield configuration. Took me a while to get the sub dialed in, but I think I am at 95% despite lack of electronic room correction. The NHT's provide a huge soundstage and image like a boss!
The gear:
Prima Luna Prologue Classic
Chord Chordette Qute HD DAC
Music Hall MMF 2.2 TT
Lounge LCR Phono stage
Morrow Audio cabling
Is anyone familiar at all with these speakers? Maybe a stretch, but I honestly believe I would have to spend Harbeth type money to better these in my small office/listening room.
