NHT 3.3...any info?


Hey folks..

Was curious if anyone knows of any links or places to get information regarding the NHT 3.3's, particulary, lab measurements, magazine reviews, etc.

Ive dont a buttload of searching on the net, i can find basic power handling and dimention information, but i cannot find anything more. I checked NHT's site, Audioreview doesent really have what im looking for either. Countless searches in google and yahoo dont pull up much either.

I can find plenty of this for OTHER NHT speakers, but not the 3.3's. You would think it would be out there seeing as how they were NHT's flagship speaker for quite some time.

I can find small quips here and there on them, but nothing more than a few dozen words.

keep yer fingers crossed for slappy, a set of these might be replacing his radioshack speakers next weekend! That'll be one hell of an upgrade

knock on wood!

Thanks!

Go to the home page - Type in NHT in the search box. This will bring up products for sale, products wanted and at the bottom it has links to other sites. Under reviews it lists 5 reviews for the 3.3, 2 on line and 3 in the mag's. Happy reading.
Thanks Newbee.
Unfortunatly 3.3 internet sitings are like bigfoot sitings. There apparently is a review for these in stereophile, but it is nowhere to be found. Same in Absolute Sound.
NHT's website has a picture with them in a room, but that is it.

weird.
Stereophile vol 16 #12 and vol 17 #3 reviewed by TJN. I have heard this speaker setup properly and it sounds very refined. If you have room for it, good for you as it is very deeeeeeeep.

Specs:
Freq response 23-26K
Sensitivity: 87db/w
Power reting: 30-300w
Dimentions: 42Hx 7Wx 31D
Weight 123 lbs/ea
Impedence 6 ohm nominal 4.3ohm min

Hope it helps!
before buying, make sure you listen to them with your equipment. i have owned 5 pairs of nht speakers in the past (from the superzeros to the 2.9's) and they can be irritating to listen to for long periods of time and they can be power hungry. i purchased the 2.9's over the 3.3's new) because of the size, and one model is designed to be placed closer to the rear wall than the other. i had better luck with amps from mcintosh and classe for taming the harshness of the upper end of the nht's. good luck.
I've listened at length to a close friends Levinson system with NHT 3.3's. Just some surface impressions, for what they are worth: They are large and require some breathing room. They produce some of the lowest, most refined bass I've heard from a pair of floorstanders. According to my friend they do require some muscle to make them sing. They are remakably detailed, and in his room and with his system produce a bigger-than-life sound to my ears. I have only listened for a few hours at a time but did not experience any listening fatigue. Even with his SS system I did not find them harsh in any part of the range. HUGE soundstage, improved further with a tube preamp (we did some swapping out of components on one occasion). Did I mention they are large? Nice finish. I've heard of some complaining about the footing being too narrow and inadequate for the size and mass of the speakers but I haven't moved them around to comment. My friend does prefer his right up against the back wall.
