The Absolute Zero Bookshelf Speaker: Absolutely stellar sound

The Absolute Zero is the latest in NHT's renowned line of mini-monitors, boasting accurate, open sound that belies its diminutive size. Features include:

• New 5.25" woofer for forceful, accurate mid-bass
• 1" aluminum dome tweeter offers the utmost asccuracy
• Easily wall-mountable using threaded insert on rear panel
• Larger listening area, lower distortion, and higher power handling than previous mini-monitors

A long line of powerful performers In 1993, NHT introduced the diminutive SuperZero, which at only 5" wide and 9" tall quickly became a reference standard for affordable loudspeakers throughout the world. NHT concentrated on providing clarity, detail, and dynamics in the midrange and high frequencies, and these attributes have reached their apex in NHT's latest mini-monitor breakthrough, the Absolute Zero.

Ideal for music and home theater systems in smaller rooms, the Absolute Zero incorporates an acoustic suspension design that use nature's perfect spring force - air - to control the cone motion instead of a heavy, unpredictable mechanical suspension. It takes a little more amplifier power to do an acoustic suspension design justice, but the greatly decreased distortion, deeper bass response, and increased detail are well worth it.

The perfect frame
The 5.25" woofer features a frame made from BMC (Bulk Molding Compound). Designers usually have to choose between inexpensive, mechanically sound materials such as ABS plastic and stamped steel, or expensive materials such as cast aluminum or magnesium that are ideal mechanically and acoustically. BMC is the best of both worlds: a cost-effective material that is immensely stiff, and easily shaped into acoustically ideal forms.

Acoustically sound, environmentally friendly - and affordable
NHT makes its cabinets with MDF, a board manufactured primarily of wood residues from the production of lumber and plywood, with a low percentage of virgin tree wood. The cabinets are hand-finished with 7 coats of polyurethane which is applied in a "solid particle" method that's safe for the environment. This finish is then sealed with 2 coats of automotive grade clear-coat to protect the cabinet for years.

By using materials such as MDF and avoiding exotic wood veneers in the construction of their cabinets, NHT makes acoustically sound, furniture-grade cabinets that are environmentally friendly and affordable to produce.
