NHT speaker
are designed to deliver
refined, musical sound
from attractive and €fiordable
packag€s.
Out efforts are
guided
by th6 study of
hum€n he€ring and are optimized
for real-world use. Every
NHT loudspeak€r undergoes

testing and
quality

at the factory to ensure

The
W-2.4, a technological relative of
NHT'S flagship l\4odel
VT-3, represents a true expression
of NHT'S home theater
design
philo6ophy.
Conceived as a
solution for high-porformance
multi-use home entertainment
systems, the VT-2.4 was
designed to
provide
state-of-the-art
reproduction of recorded
music and vid€o soundtracks.
Incorporating innovative
featufes such as NHT'S
exclusive Audio / Video
Switch
and
internal tweeter heat sinks, the
W-2.4 is optimized for both
audiophile and
video
performanc€
and is the
perfect
addition to 6urround systems incorporating
DTS, Dolby Digital@ or
Pro-Logjc@technologies.
The VT-2.4 Towers
employthe same midrange and high frequency
drivers as the companion VS-
2.4 Audio lVideo
Satoltito,
which
is recommended
for use as center and
surround speakers to
provide
matched
timbre in all five channels.
in a sealed sub-
separate vented
Inside the VT-2.4 are three separate chambers.
The midrange and high frequency
drivers are housed
enclosure
and located on a narrow
front baffle. The 1ojnch long{hrow subwoofer
is housed in a
enclosure and is mounted
on the side of the cabinet for consistent bass loading.
In addition, the W-
2.4 incorporates a
set ofrear-firing drivels, in a third chambef, which are activated
in the video mode.
I Audio /
Video Switch
The Audio / Video Switch on the front baffle of
the VT-2.4
(fig.1)
makes it an ideal speaker for
combined audio / video systems. The
"Audio"
mode
(A)
provides
impressive imaging for music
playback,
while the
"Video"
mode
(V)
activates
a set of rear firing drivers which broaden the
-soundfield
horizontally
for
a diffuse, ambient
presentation.
This "smeadng" of the sound
in
the
"Video"
mode
greatly
minimizes the occurrence of cognitive d/ssonance, a
psychoacoustical
phenomenon
which occurs when an onscrcen visual image is accompanied by a sound
that is
placed
offscreen
in a
precise
location. NHT'S Audio / Video switch optimizes the speaker
for home theater
use by minimizing cognitive dissonance, which confuses sensory
perception
and can compromise
the'?ealism" of the experience.
