NHT's C- Series represents our best efforts in passive loudspeaker design. The C- Series is based on the
same design fundamentals that established NHT's reputation for accuracy and high perfomance, and adds
new driver and cabinet technology which reduce distortion and improve dispersion. The result is a more
articulate, more musical listening experience.
The following Setup Guide will help you unpack, connect, and place your new C- Series loudspeakers in your
listening room. If you are interested in specifications or in technology used in the design, please visit our web-
site at www.nhthifi.com and look up information on your specific model. If at any time during or after setup you
require assistance, feel free to call our Customer Hotline at 1-800-NHT-9993 (800-648-9993).
This Setup Guide addresses the following models: NHT C-1 and C3 bookshelf speakers, C-4 tower speaker
and C-LCR center channel/LCR.
Unpacking your Speakers
As you unpack your C-1, C-3 and C-LCR speakers, you will notice adhesive-backed, rubber bump-ons
included in the carton. You will need to stick these on the bottom of the speakers near the four corners if
you are placing these on a table or bookshelf. They will serve to keep the speaker from sliding around and to
protect the bottom surface from scratches.
The C-4 may require the help of a friend to unpack it due to its weight and size. The C-4 has a flat bottom
and comes with stabilizers that which attach to the bottom of the speaker. Position the speaker on its back
and prop up the bottom section with some of the foam packing materials. Fasten the stabilizers using the
supplied machine screws (See Fig. 1) using a philips head screwdriver. The stabilizers for the C-4 also include
rubber cones. The rubber cones are ideal for use on wood or tile floors. They can be adjusted if you have an
uneven floor and include a locknut to lock them down. We recommend you use metal cones when placing the
C-4 on heavy carpet flooring to add stability. Metal cones can be purchased at nhthifi.com.
