Design
NHT loudspeakers are designed to deliver refined, musical sound from attractive and affordable packages. Our efforts are
guided by the study of human hearing and are optimized for real-world use. Every NHT speaker undergoes rigorous
testing and quality control at the factory to ensure you years of listening pleasure.
Following in the footsteps of NHT's successful SuperZero and SuperOne loudspeakers, the SuperTwo is our most afford-
able tower speaker, offering an unprecedented level of sonic refinement at its price. Employing the midrange and tweet-
er from the critically acclaimed SuperOne, the SuperTwo adds a downward-firing subwoofer for truly full-range perfor-
mance. This remarkable 6.5" woofer is capable of 7mm peak-to-peak excursion and delivers solid bass response to 35Hz.
Designed for discriminating audio/video enthusiasts, the SuperTwo is ideal for two-channel audiophile systems and five-
channel home theater systems, where it is timbrally matched to the SuperOne and SuperZero. And its small footprint
makes it a sensible choice when space is a prime consideration.

Placement
The SuperTwo is a floorstanding loudspeaker that requires no stands or mounting hardware other than the included
SpikeKit. The SuperTwo is designed for indoor use only.
The SuperTwos should be placed as symmetrically as possible and slightly toed-in. The drivers should face the listening
area without obstruction from furniture. The tweeters should be at equal height and at approximately ear level to ensure
accurate response. If possible, arrange the speakers so that the distance between the listener and the center of the
speaker plane is 1.5 times the distance between the two speakers (Fig.1). This configuration puts the listener in the
center of the stereo image. For best results, the SuperTwos are best situated at least 8" from the front wall (due to the
rear vent) and at least one foot from the side walls. For smoothest response, the distance from the side walls should be
different than the distance from the rear wall.
When using the SuperTwos in a five-channel home theater configuration, it is ideal for all five speakers to be placed
equidistant from the listening position. The NHT SuperOne is the appropriate timbre-matched center and surround speak-
er to use in conjunction with the SuperTwo. The upper portion of the SuperTwo features magnetically shielded drivers,
allowing the speakers to be placed in close proximity to a television without causing picture discoloration.
