I bought these years ago for my studio. I had researched every reference bookshelf, powered monitor, computer speaker setup that was for sale for the most natural neutral detailed sounding reference quality speaker. Couldn't find anything worth buying. I remembered way back about a review I had read years earlier about the NHT being the best bookshelf speaker under $1K. Re-read the current reviews in all the internet. So I saved up and took the plunge. Never regretted it to this day. I need a speaker that sounds very neutral for studio mixing, and these are the most neutral and natural sounding bookshelf/satellites speakers out there. No coloration, no bias or boost in any frequency with nano detail and precision and depth. Huge soundstage is almost holographic- as I could hear things behind me with only two of these...I recently bought a reference stereo receiver Harmon Kardon 3490 from Amazon, (never liked HK products before) and when I hooked these Classic Two's up to it, I started hearing things in my music I had never heard there before. I was looking behind me because the soundstage and imaging was so good I actually thought something was behind me enough to look. These Classic Two pair of bookshelf speakers have a "surround sound" effect of wide soundstage and detail and clarity you can't get with any other bookshelf speaker I have heard on the planet. My professional career has went from designing and installing custom studios to installing custom home theaters upwards of $200,000.00 and have not experienced this level of neutral natural definition and detail before! I have heard just about everything on the market, being in the industry; the PSB, Martin Logan, Legacy, Genesis, Jamo, Meridian, Mirage, KEF, B&W, Paradigm, Klipch, Bose, Polk, Krell, Sony, Tannoy, Sunfire, Bang & Olusfen, Definitive Technology, and more than I can remember. These are the most natural, clean, detailed, bookshelf/satellite's in the world next to the Classic Three. I also have NEVER been a fan of Harmon Kardon products, but this receiver has made a believer out of me, that is saying something if you knew me. I would highly recommend this receiver with these speakers for any audiophile out there. Make sure you have good cables- GLS Audio 12 AWG speaker wire and monster optical toslink connections make a big difference. I had a Pioneer Elite 660w 6.1 THX receiver with the Classic Two's and they sounded boring. I can't believe how much more vibrant, detailed, defined and alive the HK sounded over the more expensive Pioneer. Go read my review of it.With a great subwoofer like Velodyne or the third gen Sunfire products, this setup would be magical. Oh, side note, these need a good 300hr break in as well as the receiver to sound like they are going to.

Incredible speakers. Period. And I am more picky than anyone I know. If you get them, download the song "I Remember" by Kaskade. Make sure you have a decent powered subwoofer, and take a listen to that song. Ear candy.They come with a white screen that snaps into place over the black speakers. So they are "all white". I live in one of those ultra whitewashed modern condos in Miami however, with pure ultra white floors, walls, ceilings, and it should be noted that the speaker case itself is not pure white. Its very slight cream color. However from some angles it reflects pure white so this shouldn't dissuade you. The screen that goes on the front is a pure white, which helps even more. Very high quality, sturdy, and comes with two rubber/metal pieces that fit on the base to support the slightly curved base. Very modern. Very sexy. Very well made. The white screen has a stylish metallic "NHT" badge at the base which also looks very classy.Sound is just outstanding with a powered subwoofer. Even played loud, music sounds crisp and full.This vendor shipped one of the speakers without the necessary screws to put the base pieces on. I have contacted them and Im sure they'll send.Highly recommend these speakers.

I've had these for about six months. They are so beautiful sounding I bought the Verve sub and Classic 2 center speaker to go with it. Before I bought the center speaker I had a Klipsch center speaker. I tried everything but it never sounded right (flat). I got the NHT center thinking I'd return it if I got the same results. I didn't. NHT speaker are.....
